QUESTION 1

plans to spend those funds.

Paralegal Advice Centre?

to conduct specific projects
1.2. Name and discuss the different activities which need to be funded for the
purposes of a Paralegal Advice Centre.

(c) Helping people to access services offered by the state Millions of people are
dependent on state grants and pensions. Owing to a combination of red tape, inefficiency
and incompetence, grant or pension beneficiaries are sometimes deprived of their
benefits. There has been a steady increase in the incidence of often violent protests
against poor service delivery or neglect over the past few years. Paralegal advice centres
can play an important role in diff using such situations through a variety of methods.
(d) Assisting with employment creation Paralegal advice centres can assist with the
development of communities by helping them to establish organisations through which
people can acquire skills and generate employment and income. Paralegal advice
centres render developmental assistance in various ways
(e) Promoting community education Paralegal advice centres can play an important role
in informing and engaging communities in contentious issues and inculcating respect and
tolerance of the views of others.
QUESTION 2
2.1 Discuss the following on fundraising:
➢ Why do people fundraise? (2)
ANWER: See Study guide LU2 Paragraph 2
• to have the necessary resources for the advice centre to meet its objectives;
• to ensure the sustainability of the organisation
• to diversify funding, which means not becoming too dependent on a single funder.
➢ What is your understanding of “fundraising”? (2)
ANSWER See Study guide LU2 Paragraph 2
Fundraising is a way of matching a non-profit organisation with a funder who has similar values
and objectives and is also passionate about making a difference in society. The organisation
should therefore see itself as a vehicle or an agent of the funder. The organisation offers the
funder an opportunity, through its activities, to become actively involved in a worthwhile cause
of building and transforming society.
➢ What would you say is the key to successful fundraising? (2)
ANSWER See Study guide LU2 Paragraph 2
