The Campaign Finance Plan

CAMPAIGN FINANCE PLAN

GENERAL GOAL: With $8,000 of seed money our campaign’s goal is to raise $50,000 dollars throughout the course of 2017-18 to fund a winning effort.

BUDGET SNAPSHOT: $8,000

Over the course of the campaign, our budget will be light, but will fluctuate with the amount of cash we have on hand. Given the fact that we have set our fundraising goal substantially higher than the amount of money we would need to raise for an amendment effort like ours; if we reach our goal, we will have more than enough money to sustain our campaign and should have a surplus should any unforeseen expenses arise.
