Organizations have continued to realize the vital role played by strategic planning towards the realization of its goals and objectives.

The findings of the study revealed that fundraising was the main form of resource mobilization in Baringo County Government and further that financial resources were the highly allocated resources and that there was a significant positive relationship between resource mobilization strategies, resource allocation strategies and organization performance at the county government. Leadership strategies on organization performance were applied using a policy formulation. Risk management on organization performance; used risk control strategy in the County Government of Baringo. The study, therefore, concluded that resource mobilization on organization performance through fundraising is an important way of resource mobilization. Further, that resource allocation on organization performance through financial resources is important and as well as resource allocation through policy formulations.
