How to Fundraise When Your NGO is Brand New
Did you just start an NGO and have a difficult time getting funded? Have you applied for grants but not been successful yet? Working with grassroots NGOs from all over the world we understand that this is a huge problem!
Being a successful fundraiser is difficult for every NGO as it is. But it is the most difficult for brand-new NGOs since most donors only want to collaborate with organizations that already have a track record of successful collaborations. It resembles job applications: Employers want you to have the experience, but to get the experience you need a job, which you don´t get if you don´t have experience – a vicious circle that does not seem to have an end to it.
It is not hopeless though, we can help you build a strong foundation and fundraise successfully.
In this online course, we will give you an idea of what you have to do to be a successful fundraiser, even if your NGO cannot show a long record of successful donor relations or reporting. Don´t give up and learn how to convince donors that you are a reliable partner and deserve to get the grant – even if your NGO is brand new.
