Fundraising Strategy

First Steps to New Beginning, Inc. will rely on many different sources of funds, in part to increase the overall budget, in part to decrease the reliance on any one source. Some of the funds are available immediately, others such as the grants require six to eight month lead / applications periods.

Silent Auction ( and other organizational activities ): An annual silent auction will be held to generate funds as well as to generate visibility within the community. The auction will solicit donations of services and goods and then auction them off to auction participants. This will raise money for the organization as well as increase the visibility of Transitional Housing since the auction participants are upper income socialites. There will be other organizational activities.
United Way: This national not-for-profit organization is a powerful nation-wide fundraiser that collects money and then disperses funds to local groups.
New Jersey Departments (local & state government): Funds are available to organizations that assist with alcohol and drug prevention services.
Foundation grants ( Public and private money ): This is a rich source of available monies.
Corporate and individual donations: One program to solicit the corporate donations will be the sponsorship's of different rooms, the renovation/furniture costs for each living quarter can be reduced eliminated.
HUD (federal government): This source of funds is dedicated to housing organizations.
