The document proposes establishing a nonprofit organization called Ali Brothers in Karachi, Pakistan that would distribute food and clothes to homeless people. It summarizes three existing charities - Akshaya Trust in India, OZ Harvest in Australia, and Food for Life Vrindavan in India - that inspired this idea. It then outlines Ali Brothers' target groups, operational framework based on participatory development principles, and strategies to ensure program sustainability through reliable funding, quality control of donated goods, and community relationships.
7. Good support from the communityFUNDING like Red Cross<br />Funding is the main issue in the sustainability of any organization, if we want the proper way of funding so we have to make a very good relationship with our clients and for the people who wants to donate something like money or food, so we can make a contract with them like a mobile plane that if people want to donate some money so every month/ fortnight the bank will deduct some money from their account and will transfer the money in our organization’s account. This is the red cross funding policy that they apply all over the world and they are very successful in the fund raising policy.<br /> <br />GOOD FOOD QUALITY <br />Food quality is the big issue in the providing of food in the homeless people. We have to make sure that the food which was collected from the parties/ restaurants/ bark , certain houses is in a good quality and has to be delivered to the people without any delay otherwise it can be cause of food damage. It is also make sure that the food which is distributed is hygienic and fresh. After collecting the food we can do a good food quality inspection before the distribution ion the homeless people<br />All of the above factors are important but the most important factor is to provide good quality of food and neat and clean clothes. But all of the above factors are necessary to maintain the sustainability of an organization. There should be strict rules and regulation about the food quality and the delivery.<br />Those people who are donating the food will get our rules and regulation flyers and pamphlets that what kind of quality of food should be at time of donating, it must be hygiene, we will do the good food quality inspection after collecting the food from the donator and the inspection of food will be done by the health inspector of the organization to make sure it is hygiene and good to eat before we deliver it to our target group.<br />CLOTHES FOR HOMELESS PEOPLE<br />Proving clothes is not a very big issue but neat and clean clothes can be an issue, the clothes are donated by the textile shops and factory and from the charity organizations. Dresses donated by individuals are not collected from their home. These clothes can be dropped in the plastic bins which is kept in front of the branch offices or in community centers. Even clothes are washed and dried clean before distribution. <br />Before we start collecting food and clothes we have to do some advertisement about our organization that what we do and how we help homeless people and how people can join us do help for the homeless people. So our 1st target should be to let people know about us and for that we have to make Flyers or pamphlets and that are distributed throughout the shops and restaurants so that anyone who is interested in donating their food can contact us. The names of the shops/restaurants providing food were printed in the pamphlets so as to advertise the shops name and thereby they are happy to donate their food and clothes.<br />If we can work on our all sustainability factors and provide a good services to our target group and community so we can make this program sustainable.<br />REFERENCES <br />1)Image & logo of ALI BROTHERS <br />http://www.google.com.au/images?um=1&hl=en&rlz=1R2SUNC_enAU371&biw=1362&bih=591&tbs=isch:1&aq=f&aqi=&oq=&gs_rfai=&q=ali%20brothers<br />2) Askshaya trust<br />http://www.akshayatrust.org/<br />http://gimundo.com/news/article/narayanan-krishnan-serves-over-1-million-meals-to-indias-homeless/<br /> <br /> 3) OZ harvest Australia<br />http://www.ozharvest.org/index.asp<br /> <br /> 4) Food for life Vrindavan<br />http://www.fflvrindavan.org/index.php?S=1&Folder=7<br />5) Definition of Participative developmental Framework<br />http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Participatory_development<br />
