Apart from the endless letter writing and visits to businesses, Liszcz is forever seeking media coverage to attract donors and new member families. He also maintains strong contacts with foreign donors. The Stichting Kinderpostzels Nederland foundation funds the preliminary courses for mothers. Innovators for the Public provides Liszcz himself with a yearly income, and closer to home, the Ministry of Labor pays for therapists' annual home visits to families. It's what we have to do to remain self-sufficient.
Flexibility is also essential.
Therapists and volunteers write educational booklets for the bookstore. The parents suggest amendments to the home-care programs. When the budget wouldn't support the foundation's planned vehicle purchase, Liszcz found an NGO to cover part of the cost if he employed a partially disabled driver. They have to know that this is their program, their source of support. They have to be partners in everything you do.
