Work for Others funding comes from which sources?

• A. States and local governments
• B. Private entities
• C. Federal agencies
• D. International organizations and foreign governments

Answer: (A)

Work for Others funding is money received from external customers to perform work outside the organization’s primary mission. In this context, the external customers most often are states and local governments that contract with the organization to carry out specific projects on their behalf, with funding provided on a reimbursable basis. While private entities or other federal agencies can sometimes be customers, the materials emphasize states and local governments as the primary funders for Work for Others, which is why that option is the best choice. International organizations and foreign governments are less typical sources for WFO funding within this framework.
