In July 2019, we hosted a member fundraising Q&A with Sported volunteer Ravi Vedi. She got a chance to answer the burning questions that our group leaders have always wanted to ask a specialist. Questions included:
What do we need to have in place before trying to fundraise?
What makes a funding application stand out?
What are the best ways to get the whole group involved in fundraising?
What kind of evidence would you need to support your grant application?
How do you compete with organisations that are not honest in their applications or PR?
How do you structure a fundraising strategy?
How do you get volunteers to fundraise?
What are the differences between restricted and unrestricted funds?
