Introduction to Fundraising in the Global Development and Non-Profit SectorInfo Location Contact More Info Event Information
DescriptionLed by Steve Wiseman, this course offers a practical introduction to fundraising in the global development and non-profit space, drawing on decades of experience. It explores how organisations can align funding opportunities with their mission and values, using both emotional and strategic approaches. Participants will learn methods ranging from mass appeals and community fundraising to trust funding and sponsorships. Through case studies and exercises, learners will build skills in identifying funders, crafting effective strategies, and ensuring accountability. With international aid budgets shrinking, NGOs and charities must diversify income to sustain their work. This course equips participants—whether new to fundraising or seeking a refresh—with a clear framework to grow sustainable income and strengthen impact locally and globally.
