You tell us!

This is a fantastic opportunity made possible by JustGiving so it’s up to you to decide whether this is right for you.

We’re looking for 200 fundraisers that are committed to regularly engaging with the content and applying it to a digital fundraising project they’re working on now.

We’ll be reviewing your progress at the end of the six months so only apply if you’re willing to attend the training, use what you learn, and tell us how it’s affected your fundraising when we get in touch at the end of the grant.

Absolutely!

All of our live and on-demand training is done online so you can join in from wherever you are.

Nope!

JustGiving have funded all 200 places which means you can access it for six months for free.

Everything is hosted online on the Fundraising Everywhere website.

We’ll kick things off with an online call with all of the successful applicants on January 7th to show you around, answer any questions, and help you get to know each other.

Then it’s up to you to spend time each week to engage with the training available and apply it to your work.

We’ll be in touch by email each month to share tips and advice – and you can get in touch at any time for support.

We’ve carefully curated a selection of topics and webinars for you to build and improve your digital fundraising skills.

Here’s what you’ll learn:

  • Accessibility
  • Mental health and wellbeing
  • Equity and inclusion
  • Social media
  • Email marketing
  • Strategy
  • Supporter experience
  • Innovation
  • Leadership
  • Digital for small charities
  • CRM and data management
  • Donation pages
  • Event fundraising, individual giving, and community fundraising

Complete the above sessions, watch any of the other 700 training webinars available, and join in with the live monthly conferences and workshops if you’d like to.

You’ll receive a digital certificate to confirm your completion.

To get the most out of this opportunity, we recommend spending two hours each week engaging with the content available.

The learning grant begins on January 7th 2025 and runs to the end of June 2025.

  • Access to our digital fundraising learning portal: a series of sessions and workshops designed to increase your digital fundraising skills
  • A completion certificate once you’ve completed the modules
  • Instant access to 700+ hours of fundraising training on Fundraising Everywhere
  • Automatic registration for all Fundraising Everywhere virtual webinars, conferences, and workshops between January – June 2025 (including Events, Corporate, Legacy, F2F, Supporter Experience, and Leadership Conference)
  • The opportunity to book 1:1 coaching calls to discuss a fundraising or charity challenge

No – everyone is welcome!

Successful applicants will be fundraisers that take time to answer the questions thoughtfully and fully, we need more than one sentence answers, and have a digital fundraising project they need help with.

What we mean by that is, you’ve given thought to how you will use the training to help you achieve a specific project or goal you’re working on right now and can explain how and why it will benefit you.

You will have weekly time to dedicate to accessing the training and applying it to your ongoing work.

And you will be able to share your progress and feedback in June 2025 about how you’ve got on.

We’ll be holding a live Q&A to answer your application questions on X. Register for free here to watch live or receive the recording.

Good luck!

Any questions, please email [email protected]

Please take your time to answer these questions as fully as you can; we’re not looking for lots of text but do need more than one sentence answers.

You’re unable to save your progress so if you don’t have time to complete this now, answer the questions on another document to copy and paste over later.

We will be sharing all submissions with JustGiving so we can choose the 200 successful applicants together. If you’d like to opt-in to hear from them about other support, that is available on the application form.
