STRENGTHS

"Rona Man" is the only non-profit organization in the area aimed at preventive and restorative programs amongst youth irrespective of their physical status, religion or culture. We have great potential for success through various stakeholders support.

WEAKNESS

Due to poverty and poorly disadvantaged historic background in the area, marketing and fundraising events may be poorly affected. Attracting and recruiting professional staff such as Social Worker/Psychologist, music artists etc may be difficult but not impossible due to poor financial resources. Training and development of volunteers poses a challenge, and threatens the professionalism and active participation of both the target group and potential stakeholders. Lack of office space and administration resources has been identified as the weak point for "Rona Man".

OPPORTUNITIES

"Rona Man" has an opportunity to break the chain on substance abuse, career advancement in the community. We aim to combat the prevailing poverty and high unemployment rate amongst the youth. To provide alternatives aimed at diverting attention of substance users and potential substance users. Promote responsible use of medication for right medical reasons only.

Through effective and efficient management, "Rona Man" can improve their fundraising and sponsorships by collaborating with businesses, media and government to improve the quality of the services they aim to render.
