Q243. Consider the following instructions for funding your NGO and then draw a flow chart representing this logic
Write the grant. Find a funder. Submit the grant. Wait to see if it is funded. If it is funded, start the project. Otherwise go back to finding a funder.
Q244. This question extends problem 243. You've learned the following things during your professional training. Represent this information as a three level stepwise refinement.
- Preparing to write a grant consists of identifying a need and putting together a logic model that shows what new inputs are needed to generate desired outcomes
- Finding a funder requires identifying a list of funders, looking up the kinds of projects they are funding, and finding matches for your project
- Writing a grant involves (1) preparing to write the grant; (2) finding template appropriate to particular funders; (3) producing drafts and reviewing with staff
- Draft and review protocols vary, but one you like is to produce a draft, post it on Google docs for the team to comment on, send a prodding email to team members every few days until it looks like there are no more comments on that draft, make revisions and repeat this process until the deadline is near.
Q242. Draw a flowchart that represents the following protocol for enjoying a Saturday afternoon.
If it is sunny, go to the beach. If it is not sunny go to the movies.
If you go to the beach, if you are by yourself, take an umbrella and a good book. If you are with friends, take a bottle of wine and some nice cheese.
If you go to the movies alone, buy a monster popcorn and sit right up front. If you go with friends, be more restrained with the snacks and sit midway back.
Have a nice dinner afterwards.
