Funding K12
Funding the K12 Initiative will require four critical phases.

The first two phases are underway, the last two phases will be conducted by a team professionals from around the world with the experience and knowledge to ensure K12 Initiative's success.

/Identify the Need for K12
In this phase we will identify the need and opportunitines for the K12 Initiative, that when funded, will address or solve:


 * How will K12 Initiative impact global communities?
 * Who else, besides EDUIT, Inc. and the volunteers, wants this to happen?
 * Are there other organizations with similar missions? Is K12 Initiaitve duplicating efforts of others?
 * Can you make the case that The K12 Initiative is the best choice to solve the need or capitalize on an opportunity?

/Develop a Plan for K12
Develop plans, timetables, and budgets for the K12 Initiative:


 * Determine how much it will cost, and be prepared to explain or defend the cost.
 * Determine how long it will take to implement or build.
 * Assign responsibility and accountability for implementing the program.
 * Once the money is raised, how will it be spent?
 * Secure provisional endorsement of the Initiative from your governing board or executive committee.

/Conduct a Feasibility Analysis
Test global support for the K12 Initiative by conducting a multinational feasibility analysis. A professionally managed feasibility analysis will allow EDUIT to:


 * Learn the perceived value of EDUIT and the proposed K12 Initiative.
 * Assess the strength and influence of your volunteer leaders.
 * Identify potential new leaders and funding sources.
 * Determine an attainable campaign goal.
 * Discover what changes will the K12 Initiative needs to make and how it can be best be positioned to secure maximum financial support.

/Conduct the K12 Online Campaign
Conduct a campaign to fund the program. We will utilize a well established method that has been implemented to successfully conducted over 400 campaigns; implementing a process and methodology, which can be described in three key steps.


 * Step 1: Refine the K12 Initiative according to what was learned during the multinational feasibility study; establish the “campaign leadership”; identify, evaluate and secure investor prospects.


 * Step 2: Organize a small group of influencial campaign leaders; solicit the top 200 prospects with strategic help from volunteer leadership and with customized, return on investment (ROI) investment proposals.


 * Step 3: Conduct the Campaign, using a professional solicitor to leverage stakeholder investments ny conducting a solicitations of the remaining prospects, with little volunteer participation.
