Zagoriy Foundation announces a program for the non-profit sector called Charity Match, which aims to increase the ability of organizations to create more effective and efficient fundraising campaigns.
“We together with our partner believe that in order to develop a culture of giving, non-profit organizations and charitable foundations must be professional and systematic. That is why we are announcing a call for those who are ready to change and apply new approaches in their work”, says Zagoriy Foundation team.
The program is implemented by the Zagoriy Foundation together with the MHP – community charitable foundation.
Charity Match program has three components:
- training – 1.5-month online course from experts in the non-profit sector;
- practical – the implementation of a fundraising campaign, which is to be developed during the training;
- bonus – doubling up to UAH 50,000 from Zagoriy Foundation and MHP – community charitable foundation for successful campaigns.
What does the curriculum consist of?
- 5 thematic blocks: project management, partnerships, fundraising, communications, and reporting;
- about 15 hours of material, which are divided into short videos;
- homework;
- checklists and additional materials;
- networking chat;
- feedback from course experts;
- masterminds with participants and experts;
- live broadcasts and answers to questions;
- thesis presentation.
During the course, participants will develop fundraising campaigns, and then will begin to implement them. In case of successful fundraising, the collected amount will be doubled by Zagoriy Foundation and MHP – community charitable foundation (maximum amount of doubling of one project is UAH 50,000).
