Creating a Funding Strategy | Training

Developing a funding strategy is crucial for the sustainability and success of your organisation, but finding enough time for the strategic thinking and development behind a successful fundraising plan can feel impossible.

A well-thought-out funding strategy will outline and guide your approach to your organisation’s potential funding streams and fundraising activities, providing you with focus, direction, and clarity, and crucially, an easy-to-follow action plan. From identifying funding sources to monitoring and evaluating effectiveness, a clear and effective funding strategy will help you to achieve your goals, all while supporting your organisation’s mission.

This session will help you understand what you need to include to create an effective funding strategy, as well as exploring practical approaches to identifying the right funding opportunities for you, diversifying income streams, and ensuring financial sustainability.

Whether you’re thinking about a new funding strategy, or looking to improve your current one, this training will equip you with the tools and knowledge to achieve long-term success – securing the funds you need to what you do best: serving your community.

This is a full day training session with lunch provided.
