What is funding

Funding is about raising money.  As a voluntary organisation you tend to want to raise money for three different things.  Firstly to enable you to deliver your services or goods to your clients, secondly to raise funds to run the organisation or thirdly to raise funds for other groups.  Obviously, there are different places and ways to raise funds.  This site focuses on raising funds to run the organisation, specifically for ICT, but also looks at how you can raise funds through the use of ICT.

Common terms
