Invitation to Tender – Review of affiliate partnership and investment models
HelpAge International helps older people
claim their rights, challenge discrimination and overcome poverty, so that they
can lead dignified, secure, active
and healthy lives. Our work in over 75 countries is strengthened through our
global network of like-minded organisations - the only one of its kind in the
world. HelpAge International is looking for a
consultant to review the successes and challenges of our partnership agreements,
specifically with regards to the fundraising objective.
Partnership agreements have
been signed between HelpAge and five independent organisations (affiliates) in
the HelpAge network. For some, HelpAge was instrumental in their
formation/strengthening. Although not an explicit objective of the partnership
agreements and associated investments, the financial sustainability of
affiliates is fundamental to the approach adopted by HelpAge. The review by the
consultant will be focussed on three partnerships: HelpAge Deutschland, HelpAge
USA and WorldGranny; learnings and recommendations from this process will
inform and shape other partnership agreements. One of the key outputs will be
an assessment of value for money and cost effectiveness of the partnerships and
recommendations for a more consistent and transparent investment model(s).
The
ideal candidate should have relevant experience of fundraising for
international development and experience of working with/capacity building of
partner organisations. The consultant should also have knowledge of
organisations that generate funds via an affiliated/federated structure. It is
also essential to have a broad understanding of value for money and cost
effective approaches to resource mobilisation.
