Trust fundraisers: it’s time to be bold!
The world is going hell in a handcart and Trust Fundraisers are going to have a massive part to play in clearing up the mess.
But our role can sometimes feel like the fundraising poor relation when it comes to training, support and understanding.
That’s why on 4th December 2020 Apollo Fundraising and Fundraising Everywhere are
bringing you the first international conference dedicated to Trust Fundraising.
Featuring sessions from trust fundraisers and funders from around the world, our aim is to give you
the skills, inspiration and confidence to be bold in the way we respond to the current challenges.
During the day we will look at a range of topics, including:
The conference will be broadcast online on Friday 4 December.
There will be two streams:
And that’s not all!
As part of the conference we will be setting up our own grant-giving trust and making some grants of our own.
You will have a chance to submit a proposal to the trust and 70 delegates will have the chance to step into the role of Trustee to help us decide how to award the grants.
Real applications.
Real projects.
Real grants.
There will also be bonus download sessions and resources included in your ticket. And don’t worry if you can’t join us on the day.
Ticket holders will get access to all the content for a further 30 days to enjoy the sessions at your leisure, wherever you are in the world.
Tickets are now on sale, with Early Bird discounts available.
So don’t be that fundraiser that leaves it until 1 minute before the deadline.
Book your place today!
