Keys to sustainable CBO
Resources
1.
Prioritizing

Involves identifying what you are going to offer vs. not exclude
what can’t do/what others do best. Consider how to make the
most impact
2.
Positioning

Understand the community you serve market(,problems,
needs, challenges, services currently used and why (demand)

Understand the donor environment-range of donors
requirements, focus areas (resource availability)
Keys to sustainable CBO
resource-continuation
 Understand what other organizations are offering and what
they are good at
 Decide what you can do well
 Focus is very important
If many organizations are providing service to one community,
it is difficult to motivate for funding
3. Differentiation
 Applies to both services offered as well as to donor
requirements
 M&E Systems-how do you prove impact enables better
motivation for funds
 Clear about what services would be needed and used
 Clear about why services should be funded
Keys to sustainable CBO
resource-continuation
4. Strategy alignment
 The overall strategy gives direction to other aspects-financial, human
resources, operations
 Ensure strategic alignment
Example: If strategy is HIV Prevention strategies, financial strategy
can focus on specific funders and their particular requirements
 If the strategy is too broad may not be able to offer good quality
service or meet funder requirements and develop good funder
relationships
 Secure and nurture funding sources
 Research various donor strategies and SHIFTS in focus
 Align donor targeting with own strategy
 Focus networking
 Understand funder requirements
Keys to sustainable CBO
resource-continuation
 Understand funder requirement internal skills and capacity to meet
funder requirements
 Consider independence-opportunities for self sufficiency/Income
generation
Routine information gathering-donors, partners and community e.g.
who the funders are in your area of work?
Be aware of shifts, change in environment. Focus may move from Rx
to prevention
