Created during a time when navigating trust and foundation fundraising has become increasingly difficult, ‘The List’ is a simple spreadsheet capturing the changes in grant-making.
Freely available and produced collaboratively by fundraisers across the UK, ‘The List’ brings together information on pausing, closing, and restructuring grant programmes of nearly 300 funders.
Using this resource as a starting point, ‘The List’ MASTERCLASS will help fundraisers to navigate the wider landscape of trust and foundation funding, and put this into practice to increase your fundraising success.
Delivered by creator of The List and Fundraising Consultant Jo Jeffery, this Masterclass will give participants insights into recent grant-giving trends, sources of further prospecting, learn strategies for adapting to funder changes, and develop skills to increase fundraising success in a changing environment.
