When speaking to potential funders, corporate partners or donors, fundraisers often feel pressure to communicate everything all at once.

Your mission. Your services. Your impact. Your funding needs. All within a few minutes or a short application form. The result is that your story and messaging can feel unclear, overly detailed, or difficult for donors to quickly understand and connect with.

In this practical Telling your Charity’s Story MASTERCLASS delivered by fundraising expert Andy King, you’ll learn how to create a clear, compelling elevator pitch that helps people instantly understand what your organisation does, why it matters and why they should support your work.

This MASTERCLASS will help you feel more confident and prepared, understanding what funders actually need to hear in order to make decisions, know what to include, what to leave out and how to tailor your storytelling for different audiences without overwhelming them. The session will help give you lots of practical tips, tools and guidance that you can use straight away to talk about your organisation with confidence.

The session is accessible organisations of all sizes, causes, backgrounds to help strengthen your storytelling skills and maximise your fundraising success.

Why watch?

Developing a compelling story can help to open doors, build trust and increase support for your charitable organisation.
