Approaches by donors concerning individual contributions — Donors should be<br />
encouraged to consider areas of programs that are most in need of funding and to<br />
make unearmarked contributions wherever possible to permit the greatest flexibility.<br />
All contributions must be co-ordinated through FDRS.<br />
Contributions in-kind — The field should decide if these contributions are suitable<br />
and report the offer immediately to FDRS.<br />
Establish procedures for reporting information regularly to FRDS including:<br />
♦ Information for special appeals or special submissions and reports to donors<br />
♦ Strategic information that may have been received from donor contacts<br />
♦ General information such as donor policy statements<br />
♦ Press clippings on foreign aid, humanitarian affairs and related issues<br />
