Nevertheless, PLUG should have a viable business strategy to sustain itself. Volunteerism is good but it is not sustainable in the long run. If you look at most NGOs, the good ones that have been in existence for a long time, all operate with a viable business model. Some depend on donations. That is their business model. Our organization must have one as well. We have tried pure volunteerism and it does not work. At the very least we need funds to sustain a small set of employees that can do the leg work for whatever projects that we embark on.
