Fundraising basics for small voluntary groups and charities

Slide 1

Hello and welcome to this recording from Support Cambridgeshire. This training introduces the basics around fundraising that any group should consider.

  • You’ll find the guidance links to all the materials mentioned in this recording at the end of the accompanying transcript.
  • This recording focuses on fundraising through encouraging donations and contributions to activities and events. If you want to find out more about applying for grant funding we have another recording you can look at called Funding Application Tips and you can also look at our Support Cambridgeshire 4 Community funding database available for free on our website which gives information about funds for not for profits in Cambridgeshire.

 

Slide 2

Fundraising provides vital unrestricted income for small charities.  Unlike most grant or contract funding, it is not usually ring fenced for a particular purpose and can be used to cover essential costs that support the delivery of the group’s mission or build reserves that can be used at the discretion of the trustees to build sustainability.

However, with changing economic conditions and new trends in donor expectations, staying effective means adapting and refining your fundraising approach. In this session we’ll look at some key fundraising trends , explore a basic fundraising strategy, discuss building a supporter base, highlight the importance of a strong case for support, touch on the fundraising mix, and finally, outline some tips for planning your fundraising activities.

 

Slide 3 

Key Fundraising Trends include

  • The need to focus on donors from all age groups although older donors remain important for regular donations and legacies, younger donors are more likely to engage in events and in fundraising volunteering
  • Digital Fundraising continues to be important despite the return and growing popularity of in person events. Digital fundraising includes donations made through websites and giving platforms as well as social media and email marketing. Mobile-friendly giving is key with more people than ever browsing and donating through mobile devices.  Areas of focus include:
    • Livestream fundraising – this has been steadily growing on platforms such a Twitch involving people making donations while watching others play online games
    • In person events using digital fundraising tools have also been growing in popularity. Both those centred around socialising such as quizzes and coffee mornings and exercise challenges such as fun runs.
  • The need for greater transparency in relationships with donors: Donors want to know exactly where their money is going. They want to see impact through storytelling, social proof, and real-time updates. The most popular causes continue to be health, children and animals with most individuals supporting 2 or 3 causes
  • Opportunities for Corporate Partnerships: Businesses are increasingly looking to align with social causes both to appeal to the values of their staff and to deliver on their social responsibility commitments.
  • Environmentally conscious campaigns appeal to many donors, especially younger ones, but groups need to ensure they make this alignment with integrity and avoid green washing.

 

Slide 4

Fundraising insights

Given these trends what sorts of things could you do to improve fundraising success?

  • Set fundraising targets and developing fundraising strategies to meet these targets
  • Diversify sources of income
  • Manage data to gain an understanding of your supporters and their patterns of giving behaviour.
  • Make use of AI’s potential to utilise data to anticipate supporter need, predict behaviours and improve efficiency. As well as using free AI packages to help generate resources.

 

Slide 5

A Basic Fundraising Strategy

A fundraising strategy is essentially a roadmap to achieve your funding goals over the next few years. Creating a strategy doesn’t have to be complex:

  1. Start by reviewing where you are now with your fundraising:
    1. How much did you raise in the last couple of years? Which of your activities and events were most successful in raising funds?
    2. Who are your existing supporters and how do they support you? Include those that give you their time and in-kind support to help raise funds as well as direct financial contributions. Are your supporters’ individuals in your local community, small businesses, specific groups with a passion for your cause or some other group?  Think about what you know about your supporters and how you can build a closer relationship with them.
    3. What is the environment you are operating in? Do you have competitors for funding? What are the likely barriers to supporter engagement? For example, cost of living increases or demographic change.
  2. Set your goals: Define how much money you need to raise over a particular period and why.  If you have a business plan this should be reflected here. Be specific – knowing your exact funding requirements and purposes will make it easier to communicate this to supporters.
  3. Select Fundraising Methods: Choose the tactics that best fit your resources and audience, we’ll discuss this further when we look at the fundraising mix.
  4. Allocate Resources: Who can you involve and how, what budget can you afford to allocate?
  5. Finally, continually monitor your efforts, and don’t hesitate to adjust your tactics based on what works and what doesn’t.

 

Slide 6

Developing a Supporter Base

For small charities, a cohort of loyal supporters can be more valuable than simply aiming to grow your number of supporters.  Loyalty is developed by creating relationships.  Here are some points to consider:

Keep in touch: Send out regular updates and stories via social media, emails, and newsletters to help build your community around your cause. The most effective messaging will outline the positive difference their support has made to your beneficiaries.

Show appreciation: Thank your donors so that they know their contributions matter and are valued.

Find ways to engage people: Not everyone can give money, so consider ways they can volunteer, share your cause, or contribute their skills.

Create Donor Journeys: Think of the donor relationship as a journey, from first contact to regular giving, advocacy, and potentially legacy giving. Nurture relationships at each stage.

 

Slide 7

Developing a Strong Case for Support

A compelling case for support is critical – it’s what communicates the need and urgency of your cause. To develop this effectively:

  • Clearly Define the difference you want to make: What problem are you solving, and why does it matter? Describe how contributions make a tangible difference.
  • Share Stories: Facts and figures are essential, but stories create emotional connections. Share real stories of those whose lives have been changed by your organisation’s work. You may want to make it clear if you are intentionally keeping beneficiary identities anonymous.
  • Show Accountability: Highlight how donations are used. Transparency and accountability build trust and show that you’re responsible with funds.
  • Include a Call to Action: Be direct about how supporters can help. Whether it’s donating, volunteering, or spreading the word, make the call to action clear and easy to follow. Don’t be shy about making an ask here is a lot to be said for a big red donate button.

 

Slide 8

The Fundraising Mix

The fundraising mix is the combination of methods you use to bring in donations.  The mix you develop will depend on your specific goals, resources, audience and attitude to risk.  The main elements of the mix are:

  • Individual Giving: This can be one-time giving, such as a collection outside a supermarket or regular giving through direct debit offered by more committed supporters. It is essential that donors’ data is kept secure and that there is good communication to build relationships and to be responsive.  Individuals may also give by paying your organisation for goods or services
  • Community Events: such as charity runs, bake sales, or fetes allow you to engage face-to-face with donors and build connections to create a wider base of supporters. This type of fundraising is resource intensive and requires careful management of costs to ensure a good return on investment.  You will find resources to support event fundraising in the transcript accompanying this recording and for larger events check out your local authority’s safety advisory group page – this covers advice around any licencing and permission required.
  • Peer to Peer fundraising is when supporters raise money on your behalf via their existing networks typically through social media or donation platforms like JustGiving that can reach a wide audience with limited overhead costs.
  • Crowdfunding for not for profits usually involves asking people to donate to a campaign run by an organisation to achieve a specific purpose and within a set time frame. Although we usually associate crowdfunders with online giving platforms, crowdfunding has been used to good effect for many years to raise funds, for example for community buildings.  Some crowdfunding platforms such as ‘Crowdfunder’ and ‘Space Hive’ offer access to match funding opportunities.
  • Finally we have organisational giving: where businesses or organisations such as the Rotary Club may offer sponsorship, volunteering or in-kind donations

 

Slide 9

Fundraising Planning

In addition to creating a fundraising strategy you’ll need a shorter-term action plan. Here are some tips to consider:

Create a Calendar: Map out key fundraising activities throughout the year, considering factors like seasonal giving trends, annual events, busy delivery periods and your cashflow forecast.  For example, Giving Tuesday is a matched crowdfunding opportunity that takes place in December but requires groups to sign up for it in July   There is a link about Giving Tuesday in the transcript.

Create a budget:  Allocate funds to cover fundraising activities, keeping your budget realistic

Set short term targets: such as funds raised, donor retention rates, and event attendance. These will help you assess progress and guide future planning.

Evaluate and Reflect: Regularly assess your fundraising efforts. What worked well, and what didn’t? Use these reflections to feed into what you do.

 

Slide 10

Fundraising compliance

Any charity that is carrying out fundraising activity, even on a small scale, is subject the Fundraising Regulator’s code of fundraising practice.  The code exists to protect the public and encourage those involved in fundraising to follow best practice.  You can find a link to the code in the transcript.  The code includes a requirement to have an easily accessible complaints policy and to put in place safeguards on how to handle and bank any money collected.  Your organisation will also need to comply with other relevant regulations for example around safeguarding, health and safety, food hygiene and licencing.  See the links in the transcript for more on these.

 

Slide 11

Data protection

Data protection is crucial to ensure the privacy and security of supporters information from unauthorised access, misuse, or loss. This is important not only to comply with legal requirements – such as the General Data Protection Regulations – but also to maintain trust and credibility with your supporters.  Take a look at the links relating to this topic in the transcript.

 

Slide 12

In summary

Fundraising brings unique challenges and opportunities. By staying on top of trends, building a dedicated supporter base, creating a compelling case for support, mixing various fundraising methods, and planning strategically, your organisation can become more sustainable.

Social Value Investment / CPCA/ on-going

/by
The Social Impact Investment Fund (SIIF) is a £2.375 million fund dedicated to supporting charities and social enterprises in the Cambridgeshire and Peterborough region. Funded by the Cambridgeshire and Peterborough Combined Authority (CPCA) and managed by Allia, this innovative programme provides capital grants and loans to social and third sector organisations.

The SIIF was created to bridge the gap between what social ventures need and what traditional finance offers. We understand that many impactful organisations struggle to access patient and flexible capital that prioritises their mission to deliver social value over financial returns.

The SIIF is here to change that. By offering grants and social loans, the SIIF provides tailored support that empowers social ventures to achieve both their social and financial objectives, while fostering community development and economic growth.

Social Impact: To support organisations that create significant positive social outcomes

Financial Sustainability: To create a model for sustainable future social investment, particularly for those who cannot access traditional financial solutions

Good Growth: To stimulate economic and social development in the Cambridgeshire and Peterborough area.

The SIIF offers three key funding instruments:

  1. Grants: Non-repayable funds of £10,000 – £25,000; Best suited for charities or early-stage social enterprises with high social impact potential.
  2. Social Loans: Affordable loans of £10,000 – £75,000; Best suited for growing social ventures who want to transition to more commercial forms of capital.
  3. Revenue Participation Agreements (RPAs): An innovative funding model where capital of £10,000 – £75,000 is provided in exchange for a share of future revenues over a period; Best suited for revenue-generating organisations looking to grow without the pressure of traditional debt.

Grants are well-suited for non-profits or early-stage social ventures, while loans and RPAs are designed to drive growth and instil financial discipline in early to mid-stage companies, positioning them for larger, more traditional forms of capital, such as debt and equity.

To apply for any of the funding options under the Social Impact Investment Fund (SIIF), your organisation must meet the following eligibility criteria:

Location: Your organisation must be based in the Cambridgeshire and Peterborough Combined Authority (CPCA) region, including Peterborough, Fenland, Huntingdonshire, East Cambridgeshire, South Cambridgeshire, and Cambridge.

Social Impact Mission: Your organisation should have a clear social impact mission and a commitment to creating positive social outcomes in the local community, especially in line with CPCA’s aims to reduce inequality, create jobs, boost the economy, affordable housing, and build environmental resilience.

Capital Use: The grant and loan funding must be used for capital projects that contribute to growth, development, or expansion of the organisation, such as new product development, entering new markets, or increasing operational capacity to serve more customers and beneficiaries.

Financial Viability: Applicants must demonstrate financial stability and a realistic plan for sustainability.

Compliance: Organisations must comply with relevant legal, regulatory, and governance requirements, including subsidy control rules, as applicable.

Core costs / Foyle Foundation/ 31 Jan 2025

/by

The Foyle Foundation is an independent grant-making trust that distributes grants to UK charities. Since it became operational in November 2001, the Foundation has disbursed more than £91.5 million in grants.

Small Grants Scheme, supporting charities in all fields with a turnover of less than £150,000 per annum.

The Small Grants Scheme is provided by the Foyle Foundation to support smaller, grass-roots and local charities in the UK with projects that have the potential to make a significant difference to their work.

Grants of between £2,000 and £10,000 are available for 12 months.

Grants can be used for core costs or essential equipment.

Who Can Apply

UK charities that have an annual turnover of less than £150,000 are eligible to apply. Priority will be given to charities that are working at grass roots and local community level.

Charities must be able to demonstrate ongoing financial viability over the next 12 months.

One-year grants are available for core costs, projects, essential equipment, or building projects.

The Foundation’s priority will be to support local charities still active in their communities that are currently delivering services to the young, vulnerable, elderly, disadvantaged or the general community.

If applying for funding towards a capital project, applicants should apply towards the end of their fundraising campaign, when the majority of funding has been raised and they have an estimated start date for the works. The Foundation is unlikely to consider a request if the lease is less than 10 years. If the application is successful, the pledged grant offer is only valid for 12 months.

Applicants must show how any grant will make a significant difference to their current work and must be able to demonstrate ongoing financial viability over the next 12 months.

The Foyle Foundation will complete its grant giving programme in 2025. Due to unprecedented demand it will now stop accepting new applications to the Small Grants Scheme on 31 January 2025.

Applications can continue to be submitted at any time up to the final cut off date. Please also note that the foundation can only consider applications for projects (and funding periods) which will be completed before the end of 2025.
