Goals & Objectives of Community Events

While our mission states specifically that our goal is to raise money to fund researchers that conduct cancer research, a dollar total is not the only measure of “success” at The V Foundation. Success in any effort is judged by three objectives: fundraising, awareness and additional opportunities.

Fundraising	Fundraising is the bottom line donation given back to The Foundation for cancer research.
Awareness	Did the effort bring more awareness to The V Foundation and our mission? Did it draw attention to our cause and the reality of cancer in everyone’s lives? Did it touch an audience of people with whom we’ve never before been involved?
Additional Opportunities	Did an event motivate others to take action? Did an event provide a positive experience for a business or corporate sponsor who would now like to be involved with The Foundation on a larger level? It may be as simple as gathering a mailing list of volunteers so that they can receive The V Foundation’s holiday Giving V, or volunteer to help with other initiatives in your area. It might be as large as introducing The Foundation to a future major individual or corporate donor.

Keeping in mind our three objectives your event will help The V Foundation and our mission on a variety of levels.

All three objectives play vital roles in helping us raise money to fund cancer research. We appreciate every effort on every level. We look forward to working with you.
