With rising of "Welfare State" theory in middle 19th century, the enterprises and the third section are aroused to devote into social welfare service by their governments. In our country, the NPO (Non-Profit Organization) is mushrooming to take effect by depend on and support government each other. Making donation is foundation of their existence, but the situation of our country brings particularity on fund raising policy of China's NPO. In China, the NPO exists in two genus of GONPO (Government Organized Non-Profit Organization) and NGNPO (Non-Governmental Non-Profit Organization) or which is named as semi-non-profit organization. The bankroll originates from government financial appropriate fouds and social donation. This paper aims at non-governmental no-profit organization's socialized fund raising, and investigation measure is combined with case interview and literature research. Case data is based on interview notes of major principal which is in charge of CYCF (China Youth Care Foundation) and the written scheduling data of the activities. Comparing the research achievements of Chinese and foreign scholars, the conception of "NPO" is mainly defined from law, bankroll origin, intention & function, operating structure, etc. Their Mutual properties include providing public service, beneficent non-governmental organization and never assign surplus. The meanings of "fund raising" in this research refers to the proceeding process of collecting fund, material or working facing government, enterprises, social people and related foundations by NPO who proceed based on their tenet and aim.
