Fund raising reports prepared by Chanakya focuses on important numbers and summaries with elaborate details provided as supplementary material. We include graphical representations and visualize good key concepts. We take care to include pictures as they tell a story. The language and terminology used in the report is neutral and efforts are made to avoid fundraising jargon. While compiling reports we follow a plan to balance the cost and effort against the value the final document.

We understand that data tends to be fluid and the important historical context of the fundraising campaign can be easily lost. This is why we prepare reports that are balanced since words can be interpreted differently over time so we include a glossary at the beginning. Though you may not realize now but these reports can be extremely valuable in planning the next campaign. Some organizations may have very limited system to collect data. They should consider the preparation of such reports as a mean to help influence improvements in the system and data management techniques. The final fundraising report will provide a great opportunity to inform, educate, encourage and set the stage for your organization’s future fundraising campaigns.
