Fundraising is not just a means of raising money. It is also a way to promote the message and goals of an organisation. Without funds, an organisation simply cannot continue to promote itself or its chosen cause. This is especially true for not for profit organisations who require public funds to continue operating.


Fundraising continues to be a number one priority for the majority of organisations and it is a very competitive arena out there; public sector cuts are putting increased pressure on voluntary and community organisations, leading to increased competition when it comes to funding. If you want to learn more about the different options to raise funds, how to write a funding strategy and developing strong funding bids, then this course is for you.


This course is for anyone involved in fundraising within a voluntary and community organisation. The skills and understanding developed will enable you to improve your approach to fundraising and in turn increase your success with funding applications.
