Nonprofit organizations, that are also charitable institutions, can raise money from a variety of sources including events; corporate, foundation or government grants; individual giving; or program income. Charitable institutions are commonly defined as those having a 501 (c) 3 letter from the IRS.

Events, also call special events, are held for the purpose of raising money. They usually also have a secondary purpose for the agency to meet prospective donors and friends. Examples include galas, auctions, Golf outings or any event that is intended to raise money for the charity. Some charities also have raffles, either as part of their event or instead of an event. Raffles are considered a game of chance by the IRS and are not tax deductible for the donors.

Grants, whether corporate, government or foundation, are offered by the funding institution by issuing a Request for Proposals, typically referred to as a RFP. The RFP will detail what the priority funding area is for the institution and invite nonprofits that are charitable institutions to submit proposals to provide programming within that scope. The funding institution then selects the organizations that are best aligned with their interests.

Individual giving is any gift that is received, for any amount, which is given by an individual who receives nothing in return, other than the ability to deduct the gift. Individual giving includes planned, major and annual gifts.

Program fees are fees charged by the agency. It may be a class fee or an annual fee. It is usually a participation or service fee.
