Fundraising Fuel 🔥
Where to start…
My own fundraising journey started in 2007, when I was working at a rehabilitation centre on the island of Flores, Indonesia.
I was working with and for people with different abilities. I was young, full of energy, and determined to help them become more independent in all aspects of life.
Honestly, I think I could write a whole book about all the things we tried to raise money and create attention for the cause 😅
And now… so many years later, in the era of AI and social media, things are different.
So much more is possible.
That’s why I want to open up this space for us to share thoughts, ideas, wins, struggles, and creativity around fundraising. Because yes… I still actively fundraise for the projects I helped set up in Flores, and I know I can learn from all of you too.
One thing I’ve learned over the years is this:
Successful fundraising needs to fit your character.
Last year, I wrote an e-book about this topic, but now with AI I’ve been able to transform it into an interactive artifact.
I truly think it can help those of you who want to match your fundraising efforts with your personality and strengths.
For example… I’m actually an introvert 😅 So things like social media lives, and radio interviews never really matched my natural strengths. I got invited for a TV show once to talk about the project, but declined politely. Not my thing (scary!)
But there are MANY ways to fundraise successfully.
I would love for you to check out the artifact and let me know what you think in the Fundraising Fuel Feed 👇
