Your plan lets you know how your funding is grouped and where it has been given for specific use (stated supports)
Your plan has 3 main support purposes, CORE, CAPITAL and CAPACITY BUILDING, these break into 15 categories which have a small definition to help understand what it can be used for. See plan categories descriptions.
Once you have your plan approved you would have defined your goals and now your budget will allow you to action these.
A spread sheet will allow you to plot in regular payments to support workers and any on going costs you may have, showing you what the balance will be. Be sure to put in the most important and necessary items first to ensure your budget will go the distance.
