Fundraising Effectiveness Project Process

To submit information to the Fundraising Effectiveness Project (FEP) survey, you create an FEP process. When you first add an FEP process, you enter information about your organization. The Association of Fundraising Professionals (AFP) uses this information to determine similar organizations to use for comparison purposes. For accuracy, you can update information such as expenses and staff head count each year before you submit your fundraising data to AFP. To view and manage your organization’s FEP process, from Administration, select Fundraising Effectiveness Project. The Fundraising Effectiveness Project page appears.

On this page, the processes your organization uses to submit information to the FEP survey appears. To view information about a process, such as the date it was last run or the contact person associated with the process, select the double arrows next to a process to expand its row. Below the action bar, details of the process appear. To view additional information about a process, such as previous instances or job schedules, select the name of the process. The status page for the process appears.

Tip: For more information about the AFP as it relates to the FEP, refer to the AFP web site.
