4. Challenges and Lessons Learned

Despite the progress achieved, the Foundation continues to face several challenges:

• Limited fundraising capacity and donor visibility on GlobalGiving.
• Slow donor engagement due to the absence of an established donor base.
• Lack of transport the Foundation currently does not own a vehicle, limiting service delivery efficiency.

These challenges have constrained the scale of intended activities, including expanded food support, medical insurance assistance, community outreach, and educational aid for children affected by cancer.

Looking ahead, Six Bridges Foundation aims to:

• Reach more needy cancer patients
• Strengthen digital visibility and marketing efforts to attract new donors.
• Actively participate in GlobalGiving’s GivingTuesday and other upcoming campaigns.
