Question: Hello,
I have always intended on leading change in my community. I love working among my age group. I have come up with an idea to start a community based organisation focusing on entrepreneurship development among the youth in my community. I was just wondering on how I can draw out an effective model of operation to help me achieve my goal of motivating the youth to take over entrepreneurship roles in the community without asking for any funds from them as its a non-profit and self funded organisation.

Answer:

A good place to start would be chapters 8-9 in the Community Toolbox. There is also a toolkit (#5) on strategic planning that could be particularly useful.
