will become a professional business actor with social concern and self-sufficient, sustainable,  a centre support for fund of the institution in realizing YSI’s vision.

Public Fundraising
As an NGO that works in empowering community, since her existence on April 30, 2005, YSI has tried to raise fund in her effort to avoid dependency to donor agency. In the beginning, this activity is run by Fund Raising Commission (KPD) by selling rice and develop a nursery. But this activity has not been taken seriously, and the staffs are also responsible with other activity in YSI, particularly in disaster respond where in the last two years absorb almost all energy of YSI.

It is expected that business activity run by YSI will be able to open access of community to market, technology, provide training opportunity, and extend idea of fair trade through business practice, regulation and mechanism in the company. Fund from this business will be use to expand YSI program on people empowerment.

Experience in conducting economic program with the community, as has been explained before, is a good basis and foundation for YSI to run a professional business activity. This is the reason why YSI recommended KPD to start business that has been run before.

Targets:
