While many corporations fund nonprofit organizations through corporate foundations, many do not have a separate foundation. Understanding how to cultivate, educate, and solicit leadership from these corporations is very important and a bit different from obtaining funding from a corporate foundation.

Imagine you have been hired as a fundraising consultant to a local nonprofit organization dedicated to improving community health. This local nonprofit organization is not familiar with corporate fundraising. You have been tasked to make a presentation to the board of directors explaining the process they might establish to raise this category of funds.

 

discuss an evaluation of strategies your nonprofit organization might use to solicit corporate funds from foundations, corporations, and government entities. Also identify at least two challenges associated with corporate fundraising.

Use proper APA formatting and include the following: level 1 headings to define each part of the discussion, at least two scholarly sources to support your work, in-text citations as appropriate, and a reference list. Must be at least 700 words

As a social worker, you will often work with clients that are perceived as "others." This "otherness" often leads to marginalization and barriers or limitations promoted by society and social institutions. Marginalization is arguably the most dangerous form of oppression (Adams, 2013) because it eventually leads to social expulsion and material deprivation. Social work is a unique profession because it empowers those who are affected by the socially constructed barriers and biases that have perpetuated long-standing inequalities. As you begin your work with clients both as an intern and social worker, it is imperative to consider not only the individual (micro) concerns the client brings to the session but the environmental or macro factors that may have either created or perpetuated the concern. You can empower your clients by helping them identify and define the oppression they experienced throughout their lifetime. Social work's commitment to social justice includes a hyperawareness of the social constructions that are used to limit some groups' autonomy and viability while supporting others.

Individual Paper!
Over the last seven weeks, we have engaged a series of questions having to do with excavating the building blocks of modern/colonial policing in relationship to the origins of racism, coloniality of power, settler colonialism and white supremacy. These are asked by activists, organizers thinkers, and other situated knowledge positions who are thinking through the following: Are prisons obsolete? Are such institutions like the police obsolete? How do we understand the role of racial/gendered violence and the law? What are the methodologies used to further the line between the human and the sub-human/non-human? What is the relationship between racial violence, concepts of whiteness as property, and citizenship in the formation of a Mexican American subject? And how does studying historical moments by which the criminalization of Mexican/Mexican Americans/Chicanxs appear to serve to undermine the very logic(s) that give them meaning?

For your assignment, write a “thought piece” that engages these conversations and questions. Obviously in such a short paper, I expect you to be as precise and sharp in your analysis. That is to say, go straight into one of the topics, themes, questions that emerged as significant to you. Be in conversation with the authors, the topics, your classmates and communities, and myself. What question(s) emerge from your engagement with these authors and topics that you want to answer or speak to? Use proper citation of the materials and lectures. You do not need to do further research or bring in other resources.
