Certificate Course: Major Donor Fundraising Specially designed training for securing major donations from a variety of sources

Major Donor Fundraising can provide an important contribution to realising your organisation’s ambitions. It is therefore critical to develop skills to ensure the effectiveness of efforts to secure these large financial sums. Knowing which techniques to employ and how best to implement them is vital to maximising the prospects of your Major Donor Fundraising efforts.

Finding suitable individuals and developing a relationship with them are necessary processes for securing major donations. Once a relationship has been established, it is common to work together with your potential donor to develop a project and this requires a specific skillset that you will learn in this course. Understanding the needs and desires of your potential donor and being able to incorporate them into such a project are keys to successful Major Donor Fundraising.

This course covers the three key types of Major Donor Fundraising: individual major gifts, corporate partnerships and legacy fundraising. These domains of Major Donor Fundraising make it distinct from other forms of fundraising and it is therefore critical to undertake each of these areas, and the characteristics that are unique to them, well to ensure your organisation is realising its fundraising potential.
