Creating an internal schedule outlining goals for the shelter throughout an annual period is integral for ensuring consistent progress. Internal schedules can include any tasks related to the operation of the shelter including partnership/sponsorship application deadlines, adoption goals, fundraising events, etc. Holding staff meetings consistently to overview progress towards these goals and making adjustments as necessary will motivate and keep the staff in forward momentum.
