Some of our member movements were struggling and it was really the right time to focus on Resource Mobilisation on all levels. Together with all the other Area Organisations and the World Alliance of YMCAs we continued to develop the Resource Mobilisation Process. We have analysed the strengths and weaknesses in fundraising in all YMCAs in Europe and realised that we as YMCAs basically are too introvert. We are much too focused on ourselves and we need to learn to tell the Story of the YMCA, to share with the rest of the world about YMCA achievements and the impact we have in the local communities where we are present.
