TPI Fundraising Team Meeting

The TPI Fundraising Team is charged with helping us raise money so we can do even more social justice work and eventually hire YOU as paid staff!

TPI has prepared a strategic plan (http://tpride.org/_doc/adaptivePlanningStrategy(2016-2020).pdf) and a funding development plan (http://tpride.org/_doc/fundingDevelopmentPlan(2016-2020).pdf) to take us through 2020. We would love community input on these and of course involvement of as many as possible in helping us take our next steps forward.

These documents are essential elements that help us work toward our vision: “A world where all identities related to gender are free from stigma, where relationships are subject to no administrative regulation beyond that of individual agency and desire, and where all individuals may freely express themselves in terms of gender and relationships without fear of violence.”

The “strategic plan” is more accurately named an “adaptive planning strategy” to better convey TPI’s approach to grassroots planning as keeping broad goals in sight, but being flexible about how we achieve those goals, allowing us to be responsive to opportunities as they arise.

The funding development plan has projections for our needs through 2020. As with many projections, these will change, but this provides a starting point and goals to work toward.

This meeting, we will continue to move forward with developing work around our three goals of a) funding our advocacy and accountability work, b) funding to hire a social worker or case manager, and c) funding to hire an organizer for project development.
