Fundraising from Trusts and Foundations

Bio

I have over 13 years’ experience in trust fundraising for international and UK causes, and specialise in helping small charities, particularly those new to trust fundraising, to secure sustainable funding for their amazing work.

In particular, I have a great track record of supporting small charities and NGOs working internationally (including in education, health, livelihoods, and women's empowerment) and their local partners to find the opportunities right for them and unlock vital grants ranging from a few thousand pounds to £1m+.

Key Skills

I can help you with all areas of trust and foundation fundraising - either fundraising from trusts and foundations for the first time, or revitalising and growing your existing trusts programme.

This includes prospect research, building your case for support, application development, and donor cultivation, reporting and stewardship.
