Case for Support Why does LCIF need to grow our support?
Refugee Funding Criteria Work to develop a plan that suits the characteristics, interests and needs of your unique area How to: Maintain/ increase current gifts Expand donor base
How and when do Lions Give? If Lions in your area give mostly as individuals, the following ideas might be helpful. • MJFs and PMJFs • Contributing Member Program is easy and affordable for new donors • Major Donor Match • Public MJF presentation in honor of International Officer visit • Act as key troubleshooter on donation and recognition matters
LCIF Grants 2014-2015 During the 2014-2015 year, LCIF awarded530 grants totaling more than US$52.5 million
LCIF Board of Trustees • Composition – 21 Trustees • Every CA represented with increased representation for top donating areas • Chairperson (Immediate Past International President of LCI) • Executive Officers - IP, 1VP & 2VP • 2 most immediate past chairpersons. • Immediate Past Chairperson = Vice Chairperson • 8 Lions representing Constitutional Areas 1-7 & Africa. • 2 Lions representing 2 largest membership countries. • 3 Lions representing 3 largest donor countries. • 2 Lions appointed by LCI International President – 1 PIP and 1 PID, not both from the same constitutional area.
Why the need for a LCIF Board? Expand programs in order to help more people To help more people, more funds are needed Fundraising goal of US$50 million by 50th anniversary More funds will be achieved by increasing awareness Increasing awareness requires a group of Trustees whose top priority is LCIF
