This organizational analysis provides an overview of the Dress for Success San Antonio (DFS San Antonio) nonprofit organization. I will highlight some strengths and challenges, and describe ways that DFS San Antonio can overcome those challenges to further its growth and development. DFS San Antonio is facing two major managerial and operational challenges: (a) lack of sufficient and diverse fundraising income; and (b) inadequate engagement in fundraising activities from the board of directors. These two challenges exist primarily because DFS San Antonio does not have a dedicated development department; and because the board of directors is not as actively engaged in fundraising as they should be.
The non-profit organization I volunteered for was Clifford O. Taylor/Kirklane Elementary School. Opened in 1970 as the second public elementary school in Palm Springs (The Village of Palm Springs, n.d.), it is located at 4200 Purdy Lane. The school does not have a mission statement, but is under the jurisdiction of the School District of Palm Beach County, which has a mission statement: “The School District of Palm Beach County is committed to providing a world-class education with excellence and equity to empower each student to reach his or her highest potential with the most effective staff to foster the knowledge, skills, and ethics required for responsible citizenship and productive careers.” (School District of Palm Beach County, n.d.)
Kiwanis Organization: The Kiwanis International web page has a clear mission statement of, “serving the children of the world.” Furthering this statement, Kiwanis is located in nearly 96 nations with the same goals of helping their communities; however, each community is different making each Kiwanis organization unique in their own way. Nevertheless, a typical Kiwanis organization plans hands-on projects focusing on the needs of the community, such as helping the elderly, supporting youth sports, or promoting literacy. In addition to attending meetings, Kiwanis members volunteer about two hours every month for projects involving children or persons in need. When Kiwanis was first found in Detroit, Michigan, 1915 their mission statement
Mission Statement: The goal of Queens Community House is to dedicate itself to “the personal growth of the diverse people it serves and to the creation of self-reliant, open, responsible communities.” Introduction: Queens Community House is a non-profit organization located in New York City which focuses on advocating for the rights of immigrants and the LGBT community as well as helping children coming from low-income households. This philanthropic institution was founded in 1975 as a settlement house called Forest Hills Community House to resolve an issue that plagued this neighborhood and has grown significantly since its inception as they currently serve a myriad of other communities at 25 sites throughout Queens. They strive to change people's lives for the better and positively transform the neighborhoods in which they reside.
From hands-on service around the world, to originating successful fundraisers, I participate in various aspects of community service. Some of my fundraisers have even been published. I currently spend most of my time doing service towards my fundraising project expanding access to education. I could not imagine being one of the over 75 million children without access to education. As I was beginning my hobby of DJing, I immediately decided that I will partner with Pencils of Promise (PoP) to start my own fundraising project where twenty percent of my profits from every event DJ’d will go to the organization.
As my final years of high school draws near many of my family members begin to bombard me dying to know what my plans are for the future. Questions such as; where I plan on going to college or what I intend on majoring in. In the summer of my sixth-grade year, I was accepted into the Bogota Police Emergency Services Youth Academy. Their extensive week-long training program is what shaped me into the woman the I have become today. There mission statement: The mission of the Emergency Services Youth Academy is to expose children to the importance of public service.
According to their website, their mission statement is “The Children's Museum & Theatre of Maine exists to inspire discovery and imagination through exploration and play. The Museum & Theatre serves as an indispensable resource for families and educators, helping to create a broad community devoted to our children's development and learning” . It is easy to figure out that they are mainly serving the children and dedicated to use their programs to provide them a better opportunity of learning through the arts and science. The mix of both visual arts programs and performing arts programs is definitely one reason to keep them active and successful since families can enjoy both performances and events at the same venue. In my opinion, their services
I say this since it was through an SNT that helped make this community project happen. I began a donation based event on gathering shower packs for the Stand Down event at San Juan College in Farmington, NM. It was during a SNT in the summer that the idea of doing an event for the community was brought up by an NSLS member, Christina Hentz. She

When the National Parent Teacher Association (PTA) was created it was for the mothers that they would believe to support their mission to eliminate threats that endangered children. Though many years down the road there have been many changes within The National Parent Teacher Association, that now they have entered in which school have their own PTA. For the community the PTA have been getting teachers and parents to work together for the children, supporting children in need, and for providing self-funding for the schools. Teachers and parents have been coming together since February 17, 1897, when Alice McLellan Birney and Phoebe Apperson founded The National Parent Teacher Association (PTA). From then on, the PTA has valued their mission statement which states “PTA’s mission is to make every child’s potential a reality by engaging and empowering families and communities to advocate for all children”.
With fundraising ideas that relate to the interests of the public, the foundation could earn more donations. Make-A-Wish foundation already does a lot to inform the public, but there are people in the United States that do not ever hear about donating to grant a child a wish. By reaching out to news stations around and proposing to them that this foundation betters a sick child, Make-A-Wish would be better known. All it takes is a little more getting known by the United States, and possibly the world and this foundation would soar. Organized walks with admissions unite people, and also different kinds of "a-thons" earn money.
The Denison Taekwondo Club is a student led organization that is an extension of the Introduction to Taekwondo class. Though the club is student led, legal and liability reasons require that the club is overseen by a certified Taekwondo instructor. Denison’s Taekwondo Club meets three times a week while weekends provide an opportunity for members to join sessions at the Westerville Taekwondo Dojo. Being associated with the Westerville Dojo, the club falls under Taekwondo America, the national organization that oversees and standardizes the teaching methods of schools across the nation. Consequently, this case study will apply and use Taekwondo America’s mission statement as well as its codes of conduct and philosophy of martial arts.
