Marketing and Communications
We are targeting small local businesses because our survey showed us that they are the best source to solicit donations from.

This action makes people feel more comfortable with their organization and therefore more willing to choose their business over their competition that may not give back. Due to that reasoning, businesses tend to look for charitable organizations to donate to. Small businesses also often times …

Perceptions of fit were found to mediate the relationship between message specificity and intention to apply to the organization. In addition, perceptions of organization attributes and person-organization fit were found to influence intentions to apply under circumstances of explicit recruitment information while attractiveness and fit perceptions were shown to …
