Many clients believe they may be eligible for grants but lack the resources, expertise or time to identify funds and to turn their story into a compelling case for support.
That’s why a large number of our partners use our outsourced fundraising service to “test the waters”:
Often, we work with the client for six to 12 months, undertaking every aspect of the fundraising function and embedding our efforts in the host organisation’s structure. It’s not about writing strategy documents to gather dust, it’s about our becoming an integral member of the charity’s team and raising funds.
After the contract comes to an end we are often asked to continue the service or to hand over to a new team member, who can build upon the successes of our engagement with a ready-made donor pool and prospect list to nurture and develop.
For trustees who can, understandably, be risk averse this service (married with a money-back guarantee) provides the perfect introduction to fundraising.
