(Refers particularly to the USA)

The coalescing of donors, human service agencies, beneficiaries, and the general community with a single effort to:

  • Raise funds for a variety of human services;
  • Determine the allocations of funds to agencies for programs;
  • Account for the effectiveness and efficiency in using the funds.
