Coaching Covid Response Programme

Do you have a fundraising issue? 

Do you need some support putting your fundraising plan into action?  

We have some FREE help available…

The Chartered Institute of Fundraising Cymru, as a direct response to Covid-19, is offering a free, responsive, issue-based scheme to help Wales-based charities, CICs, CIOs tackle a particular issue where they lack professional fundraising capacity or skills to address.

Having launched the scheme in September we’ve matched over 60 organisations to professional fundraising coaches. We are delighted to announce we have received further funding to extend this support scheme to include smaller organisations who are constituted but do not hold a registration with Companies House or the Charity Commission. 

All organisations, once approved, are carefully matched to a professional fundraiser who is an expert in tackling the issues your organisation is experiencing. This could be an application to a trust, campaign messaging for an appeal, dealing with communications with an existing donor or launching an online appeal. Your coach will offer up to five hours of free support on a particular issue.

We were so pleased to be accepted onto this programme. The application process was straightforward and the help we received, as a result, has been invaluable. We were matched with a coach who was enthusiastic about working with us, took time to listen, made some great suggestions and provocations, and really helped shape our future fundraising direction. It has left me feeling more confident about the fundraising road ahead for our organisation.”

All support will be conducted remotely in accordance with social distancing protocol via phone, email and digital conferencing.

If you feel your organisation fits these criteria please complete the application form on https://forms.gle/Yw51wPo3EchRmy727  or contact Elliot for more information.
