A One Day Charity Fundraising Event

A One Day Charity Fundraising Event
SCENARIO
A Client from Charitable Ventures Ltd has approached your organisation Project Management Ltd (PML) with an exciting opportunity, namely to plan and cost out a one day charity fundraising event. You consider this to be a golden opportunity to enter a growth market of charitable fundraising event management.
The project is currently in the feasibility stage. As the Client is unable to run this event through Charitable Ventures Ltd they are seeking other organisations who may be interested in undertaking the project. You will be expected to come up with a concept idea and will have the freedom to choose the venue and which charity the event will support. The Client will be expecting your team to present an overview of the project concept plus the future phases (and activities) of the project from definition through to delivery. The Client has handed your team a list of hurriedly prepared project objectives, project requirements and constraints (see below). You will be up against other teams in this exercise so you will be expected to prepare a convincing and powerful presentation to persuade the Client to use your team’s ideas.
Project Objectives
To plan a one day Charity Fundraising Event to take place on Saturday 23rd August 2014 within a maximum budget of £30,000.
Project Requirements
The project requirements agreed at the meeting were as follows:
– A high quality Fundraising Event is required to attract the maximum level of financial support for your chosen charity;
– A rigorous marketing campaign with the inclusion of a high profile Celebrity (who should be present throughout the Event) is to be conducted to ensure maximum attendance;
– The Client will provide £20,000 up front and is expecting your team to give details for how you will raise the additional £10,000 (e.g. from corporate sponsorship, sale of tickets etc.)
– The target is to make a minimum profit of £20,000 for your chosen Charity once all project costs have been accounted for (including returning the original £20,000 to the Client).
 
PLEASE NOTE
YOU ARE NOT EXPECTED TO MAKE CONTACT WITH ANYONE OUTSIDE OF THE UNIVERSITY WITHOUT MAKING IT CLEAR TO THEM THAT THIS IS A THEORETICAL ASSIGNMENT WHICH WILLNOT ACTUALLY TAKE PLACE.
Agreed Tasks
One of your first tasks is to decide who in the team is to be the Project Manager and then to organise roles within the team. It was agreed at the end of the first meeting with the Client that the following would be included in the teamproject planning report:
– Outline the main theme for the Fundraising Event and the name of the charity that it will be supporting;
– Define your team’s approach to developing the project plan for the Charity Fundraising Event using the Project Life Cycle;
– Develop a Project Scope Statement;
– Develop a Marketing Plan and explain how you will raise the £10,000 to cover the outstanding costs.
– Develop a Work Breakdown Structure and explain it;
– Include suitable team structures for each phase of the project;
– Conduct a Stakeholder Analysis of the project;
– Plan the day and identify the critical activities;
– Construct a Gantt chart to determine an estimate for the cost and time duration of the tasks identified in the project and analyse it to determine the Critical Path;
– Provide a full financial cost breakdown of the project, including a projected profit figure (after all costs have been taken into account);
– Identify the key risks that might be encountered in the projectand construct an outline project risk register;
– Determine a means of monitoring and controlling the project costs and activities once the project is implemented.
 
Project Assumptions
You will need to make assumptions to enable the cost of the project to be estimated. You must ensure that these are justified, logical and consistent in your presentation and they must also be made explicit in your team project planning report.
 
Project Deliverables/Milestones
The project planning report must be submitted via VLE System to the Client from Charitable Ventures Ltd. It is more than likely that there will be deliverables and milestones within the project and your team will need to advise the Client on these.
 
 
 
 
Assignment Requirements and Assessment:
PART ONE – Team Presentation – 15 minutes
