Men on the Side of the Road (MSR) lacks the funds to continue training the unemployed in Windhoek, Namibia. MSR requires more donors and a customer relationship manager (CRM). We used surveys and interviews to discover possible CRM options, strategies for donor engagement, and avenues for grants. We implemented HubSpot as the CRM, created a list of grants to apply for, and established a donor follow-up plan so that MSR can help unemployed Namibians build a stable economic future.
