Venric's Analysis of the Results

This is a random analysis of the survey as a response to oxy's out of manja:
A N A L Y S I S
Prime dependent variables of the survey: The analysis is outrightly derived from among the three (3) important dependent variables: the PhilNavs, its staff and the issue on finances.
Constraints of the survey: The only independent variable in the survey is the qualification of being a member of the cebunavs who would be acting collectively in capacity as core and active Navs alumni members . This collective and qualified group of members as respondents, aside, they are particular members of the e-group. However, no exact reference as to their gender, age, ministry of involvement, profession , present status in life, and others relevant, have been taken into account , where the resulting perception could be fairly well attributed as bases of comparison and correlations in arriving at a better or vivid conclusion. Hence, the formulation of the succeeding hypothesis is primarily limited on how this independent variable react to the various questions at hand. Its corresponding analysis by far is random, which means that it is primarily based upon the direct result of the survey, without reference to any previous research or literature and the current statistically defined formulas.
Types of Analysis used: Statistical analysis is used , which often designed to demonstrate cause and effect that shows correlation between variables. In some other aspects of the survey choices, descriptive impression is offered in detail, identifying the vantage view where the dependent variables are focused.
Objective or hypothesis of the survey: Among twenty eight (28) active alumni members of the Cebu Navs, there is a direct relationship between connectivity and ability to give support to the organization.
ANALYSIS PROPER:
A. CONNECTIVITY
Connectivity is an aspect in the life of a member where one is never by any chance deprived of knowledge and awareness to the affairs and programs of an organization. As far as the Navs organization is concerned, thirty seven (37%) of the respondents has stated that their involvement is continuous even if they stay out of the ministry area. Such figure is roughly motivating but inspiring, as only about a little over twenty two (22%) have depicted for their continuity though staying within or close to a ministry area. Notwithstanding, there are still those alumni(25.9%), who are not directly involved by reason of least proximity to a ministry area, which any of the staff or perhaps the leadership should find means in reaching out for them. Thirty six (36%) of the respondents says that any of the Navs staffs has contacted them often, when they went somewhere, but this act has to be honed by the former as the other batch of thirty six (36%) as well says, they are rarely pursued.
At the instance of the respondents itself, fourty (48%) declares that they are never disconnected with the Navs. This result is mainly due to the fact that sixty(67%) of them is involved with the Navs for over ten(10) years. Among the many activities outlined by the ministry, attendance to fellowships (88%), doing any scriptural disciplines (84.6%), participation to conferences and trainings (80.8%) , leading bible studies and witnessing (76..9%) have given support to the virtue of involvement and connectivity.
On the part of the key staffs, ninety one (91%) of the respondents reflects, that the staffs are really called by God, sixty five(65%) says, that they are good example of character and faith and seventy eight (78%) points, that they are sincere of their love to people and the ministry. These findings have shown encouragement to the alumni to consider themselves always a part of the organization.
All of the above results has substantiated into a positive degree of connectivity and close familiarity with the structure and programs of the organization.
B. ART OF GIVING
Seventy five(75%) of the respondents has defined giving as an act of providing monetary support to the programs and projects of the organization, which is led by God. The respondents also have found satisfaction and stature in their involvement,
where sixty two (62%) has the belief on what the PhilNavs is doing. Nevertheless, twenty two (22%) has opined that they are not properly informed of the priorities of the organization and thus, are logically hesitant to give. Also, twenty two (22%) identifies such factor of their being disconnected to any of the Navwork and sixteen(16%) pushes for less transparency by the Navs officials with regards to its finances as formal factors to consider why alumni members are not efficient and effective in the art of giving to the organization.
Sixty five (65%) has suggested, that the present giving has to be done regularly and it shall be performed unconditionally, and to be given to the staff that has personal relationship with the giver. To bolster up the analysis, seventy (70%) of the respondents has outlined in their choices, that in effectively practicing the virtue of giving, partnership between the Navs organization and the concerned donors has to be firmly established, and that the latter has to be informed on what actually has happened to the support given.
The same true with the aspect on connectivity, that the art and virtue of giving can only be practiced, efficiently and effectively, unless, a continuous and direct knowledge , where vast room of transparency as well as eager informations, re: the affairs and programs of the organization , are catered unto anyone, who may have the full capability to give as potential donors for the organization.
CONCLUSION
Riding on the simple merits of the above analysis, it can be randomly deduced that there exist a direct relationship and correlation between connectivity and ability to give financial support, where substantial informations such as , the specified vision-mission, directions, supports: whether effective or not, structure , programs or in general, the affairs of the PhilNavs as a ministry and organization, sizing up, for the purpose of establishing and maintaining the support due it.
