Once the previous ten steps have been completed, the foundation of an NGO has essentially been established. There are only a few miscellaneous tasks that must be completed before the NGO can fully operate. Some of these include:

• Hiring Staff and Volunteers
• Reaching out and becoming known in the community.
• Seeking office supplies (furniture, computers, machinery)
• Insuring the NGO
• Holding Orientation

     After this point program activities can be discussed and implemented . It may take about a year before these prove to be sucessful . Finally, at the end of the first year, it is important to review the mission, goals, and vision to make sure the NGO has stayed on track. Critiquing programs and activities to see what can stay or be changed is also beneficial.
