How do charities and non-profit organizations benefit from membership in a federation?
Federations are used by non-profit agencies to perform marketing and fundraising functions that the organizations may be ill-equipped to perform on their own. Federations provide agencies with a common mission, collegial support, and strength in numbers. In addition, they can assist with non-profit registration, fulfillment of requirements, operational challenges, and advocacy. Federations often represent their charities in fundraising campaigns, allowing them to reach wider audiences, and enabling them to focus on their core missions of providing services.
