The Fundraiser with Many Hats

How many fundraisers feel every day.

A lot of my work right now is with small charities, or charities with small fundraising teams. Many of those teams are also responsible for other functions like communications, volunteers, or community engagement.

This is my background as a fundraiser too, working as a solo fundraiser in a small shops and leading small teams responsible for fundraising, comms, and sometimes other areas too.

Based on a presentation I’ve given at conferences the past two years, I wrote a piece for Hilborn Charity eNews about working in this environment, what I’ve learned, and how to make the most of it. You can read it here. If you have any thoughts about it, or if it resonates and you’d like to talk more, email me at alex@worksprogressstrategy.com.
