Overview
Is your approach to funding slapdash and last minute, or strategic and effective?
Would you like a framework leading to sustainable funding?
Come along to this funding strategy session where you can upskill and refresh your knowledge on best practice fund-seeking strategies, processes and examples, that will help increase your funding success and sustainability.
Sitting within the Funding, Income & Sustainability capability area of the LiiFT Aotearoa framework, this practical session supports organisations in the Strengthen and Sustain & Scale stages through practical funding frameworks, prioritisation strategies, and funder-readiness approaches.
In this session we will cover:
-
A simple framework to map out your funding request.
-
Different funding options relevant to your organisation and how to prioritise these options.
-
Funder expectations and accountability reporting.
-
Have your questions answered.
Who is this for?

This is an entry level session ideal for managers, trustees and fundraisers from grassroots and community based not for profit organisations.
