I will never understand the 'strategy' to not invest in #CommunityFundraising
Investing leads to overall fundraising uplift. Community Fundraisers are the face of your charity, building authentic relationships & empowering supporters to be ambassadors.
Why wouldn't you invest in that?

#DYK joy helps combat stress, boosts resiliance & connection.
When the work we do is big, important & sometimes scary it's important to look after ourselves.
My clients talk about the 'energy' I bring. I put all of this down to looking for moments of joy.
What joy have you expereinced lately?

A former events fundraiser who doesn't know how to put up a banner? Yeeah...I bliming hate those things.
And apparently no matter how long you've been fundraising, how senior you may be - you will still need to be putting up a pull up banner!
