Major Donors are the cornerstone of most charities.
 

Now more than ever, as charities grapple with the challenges of income generation and searching for lead major donors for online matched giving campaigns, major donor fundraising is critical. 

 

Finding the right people and bringing them on board is always a challenge.


This course will teach a unique model of major donor fundraising, the skills needed to bring in new major donors and give you the confidence to ask for major gifts yourself. There is also an opportunity to meet and interview a major donor, as well as a role play to practice your new skills.

​"This course was absolutely fantastic - packed with insightful, practical content that I could put into action straight away. The trainer was brilliant: funny, engaging, and clearly an expert in their field, which made the sessions both enjoyable and hugely informative. The role play element was especially impactful - having the chance to identify a major donor and actually practice making an ask gave me the confidence and clarity I needed to take the next step in my fundraising work. I’d highly recommend this course to anyone looking to build real skills in major donor fundraising."
