This course was very helpful and easy to understand
this module 2 was very interesting
I've learned nuances of strategic fundraising in the previous module which module no2
this course is great.
as a fundraiser my next step would be to see if my organization is checking in everything that would help us find more donors.
In the next month, I will utilize digital channels for fundraising as much as possible. I will also liaise with members of my board in a bid to reach their friends, colleagues, acquaintances and other members of their network.
Same here bro
I have been motivated to know fundraising and now ready to engage myself practicing it.
I'm interested for Mr Tom Wolf who send me every day the essentials to know the fundraising in my organization. Thanks sir.
After taking the introductory course, I will take another of Tom Wolf's courses on fundraising to deepen my knowledge and skills.
Après ce course,je pense pouvoir commencer à me constituer un réseau de donateurs qui sont mes proches.
Me too. This has been quite insightful. Definitely useful for the near future.
I will have to continue learning and practicing fundraising as I take more course in fundraising
I take the next course in Fundraising.
After following the course, I look forward to being more engaged with the donor community. The course also helped to be more strategic in raising funds
This module really provide a very rich terminological words that enrich my knowledge of fundraising and now I can desing my fundrasing plan using proper words.

This was a very short but comprehensive included many essential points to be considered while deveoping and fundraising campaign.
@shades , thanks for staying to complete the course.
You are right @ kawa, that is the nature of fundraising. It must be brief but impactful to get donors to support your course.
Very well noted @timmyngwarati. We wish you the best in your endeavor.
This a fundamental concept for me to get away as for my new role as a fundraising assistant in my organization. Looking forward to learn about the fundraising in the next course. Thanks!
This introduction to fund raising is really helpful to me. It gives me clear understanding related to my jobs. I will definitely translate this learnings in to actions and also complete remaining 2 course within next month.
Thanks Tom and Philanthropy University.
very interesting
Consentrate more on non-monetary donors.
Evaluate the effectiveness of our fundraising effort.
In the next month i hope to complete one of Tom Wolf's other Philanthropy university courses: Fundraising strategies or Connecting with Donors.
I will identify five prospective donors too.
In the next month I plan to complete 4 more fundraising courses as I work to further my education towards obtaining CFRE designation.
In the next 3 months 1 will reach out to 5 donors. I will also enroll in other Fundraising courses in this platform to improve my non-profit organization and drive it to success. Thanks for the course, it was informative.
I am really delighted with this great inside . This first section of the cause is giving me hope, that I will deal with my weakness in Fundrasing.To me this is one of the most strategic aspect of an organization as our lecturer said, organization need money. Thank you Sir for this wonderful gift.
I found the aspect of ensuring there is a strategic fit with potential donors quite insightful. It will definitely help in more efficient allocation of resources (time and energy). Going forward I will consider intentional with our fundraising activities.
I used to think that fundraising was rocket science until I encountered this course that simplified what fundraising is and curbed my worries. I intend to take other courses offered by Philanthropy University to advance my fundraising skills and also study the fundraising guide that was recommended in this course.
The model helps us in various way of being a fundraising and connected to the funders.
I think being aware of the basic of fundraising is a good start
I feel more that I have understanding and motivation to start into a more focused career in philanthropic communications. In the next month I will take one of Tom’s communications courses.
After taking this course I feel more prepared to fundraise, using the right tools, as talking to the right people and knowing more about what I should be talking about in order to get their attention. I think I will work on expand our list of possible donors and try to match their interests with our projects, then contact them.
It`s an amazing course! Feel super motivated to launch fundraising campaigns.
After taking this course-- Intro to Fundraising-- I have already made the following decisions:
Sounds like a good start!
Best of luck with your work!
I have to prepare a comprehensive vision and mission statement with fundraising context. Even then, a small organization like ours would be in a better place working with big organizations that are likely to receive funding from major donors.
Oh yes, one feels so empowered after taking this course.
The information was very useful. It helped me define my organization and where it fits in the charity schema. It also allowed me to look at my place within the organization and how I can leverage its resources to find prospects and narrow them down to those who strategically fit.
Visibility is key, more action to make our organization well known
Great opportunity to learn
Great program
Great work
I am thinking the same thing. Need to up our game.
This course has motivated me to continue fundraising and learning.
Previous to taking this course our organization has primarily focused on fundraising outside of our country of Guatemala. However, after taking this course we have learned that we can fund raise within the country by offering either goods or services in exchange for donations. This proves to be game changing for our yearly fundraising plans.
Intro: Ojok Denis Ambrose. I expect to gain wealth of knowledge from the course. I will continue doing course on fundraising in the platform. Thank you.
The course has been very informative. i would like to take another course on fundraising connecting with donors.
Course which I took helped me to understand more about Fundraising and I am determined to take next level of the Fundraising course..
After finishing this course i will be able to manage properly our organisation.
In the next month, I will discuss with my mentor the basics of fundraising that I learned through this course. Through our discussion, I will identify my next course for learning, or take on some development responsibilities that are currently my mentor's responsibility.
I will be more thoughtful in engaging potential donors pursuing a relationship and not just a transaction.
I will be more thoughtful in engaging potential donors pursuing a relationship and not just a transaction.
Next month I will further my knowledge of fundraising by taking more of Tom's lessons
Very Helpful
i will continue with take many course about the same topic
Hello. I am Ajang Precious from Nigeria. I look forward to an intellectually rewarding time here.
this course was really good. It gives a general introduction to the world of fundraising.
In taking this module 2, I learned that I am not yet ready for fundraising. I took the assessment to discover my readiness to fundraise, and I must admit, I have not taken all the necessary steps to achieve my goal of owning a viable, successful nonprofit. It started on the right path, but has gone astray and getting larger without any solid help. Sometimes it makes me want to throw in the towel, but I don't know what else I would do without this nonprofit. But getting there is overwhelming at times.
In the next month, I will take both of Tom Wolf's other Philanthropy University courses. I am also considering applying to employment with a national non-profit doing work I am excited about.
Very well arranged all the parts of Module 2
After taking this course I feel more prepared to continue in my career in development. I'm going to take more online courses about fundraising and using Blackbaud products to futher my org's mission.
I am proud of myself for taking a decision to enroll for this course. I gain so much confident and know on how to effectively fundraise for our projects. It has been a challenging period especially during COVID but I have gained focus and hope for better results.
This was a good primer for my career change search. After 20+ years in financial services relationship management I am seeking a change. Focus on using my skills to help an organization grow by serving.
The second module has really open up my mind for not only position myself for fundraising but also how to build my organization brand
After taking this module I now feel adequately prepared to scale up my fundraising to individual donors.
I plan to conduct fundraising assessment in quarterly basis to see how potential we are in seeking funds from donors
I am eager to take more similar course in the monthly basis and also invite other individual who struggle in such concern but not yet have skill to do sobolded text
for sure in the next two weeks, I will take more of Tom Wolf's other Philanthropy University courses, Fundraising: focusing my progress by learning the coures,Connecting with Donors or Fundraising Strategies.
I pursued a type of course from wisdom touched based e-learning platform from Philanthropy university, well experienced and very skillful knowledge hub for candidate
I say many thanks to all of its member
In the next month, I will identify prospective donors and reach out to them regarding supporting us. I will also update our social media content to show work we do and connect with current and prospective donors.
after this course, i want to come up with a fundraising strategy for my department in our organization.
am planning also to findish the rest of the fund raising courses
In the next month, I will take one of Tom Wolf's other Philanthropy University courses, Fundraising Strategies.
Thank you so much for the brain of knowledge, we have a work to do in our organization so as to succeed in fundraising
The information received was informative and useful
This is the most basic explanatory course in fundraising I have come across with. Learning so much and it’s giving me the courage that I need to go into fundraising and development.
Ha sido un módulo muy interesante, en el cual he podido tener conceptos más claros acerca la recaudación de fondos, sobre cuáles son los términos que debemos usar con los donantes y el tipo de apoyo que podemos obtener de los donantes. Tenemos tres, el primero el apoyo a programas, el segundo el apoyo operacional y el apoyo capital.
Algo que le importa mucho a los donantes es también el que seamos los más transparentes posibles con las cuentas y sobre cómo estamos distribuyendo su dinero, para evitar diferentes problemas con los donantes.
what I will do next to grow as a fundraiser? I will implement the basics that I learned here. Now, I have more confidence about my skills and experience in fundraising and I think I can make it. I will check with my organization if they have the basics of fundraising. then, I will work on a plan and finally, I will implement it.
In the first week of January, I will set up a team for fundraising and we will start to map donors and see how we can start the connections.
By the last week of January we must have Identified at least three donors to approach on our Solar Powered Air Compressor Vulcanising Machine for Vulcanisers in Lagos State.
I also feel deeply motivated to fundraise after this introductory course. I will keep learning by doing the other classes available "Fundraising: Conecting with donors" and "Funraising Stategies". Thank you!
In the next month I will take the follow up courses on Philanthropy University and look at my current job and where I can apply my new knowledge. I'm already looking at different companies who have the potential to become donors as this course helped me narrow down what I should look for.
In the next month I will create a social media campaign to attract donors.
In the next month I hope to be able to start a social media campaign to attract more donors.
My eyes truly have been opened to areas of fundraising. Very informative
The introductory series have been useful, I will continue even after next month on Fundraising course to become an expert abba10praise@gmail.com
It's good information for me to know the steps .
I will support other NGOs and CSOs to build their strategies on fund raising through different capacity building program.
i feel motivated and have learned things about Fundraising
Informative and useful - I will dig into my constituent list and find someone to ask for operating dollars.
This course is just amazing and an excellent one for not just starter but I think people already in the fundraising skills. I am overwhelmed how a free course like this managed to give all insights on fundraising. I look forward to participating in the further courses and i truly believe I am going to make a great impact to my organization
