In this introductory course, I have learnt not only about fundraising, but I discover that fundraising won't be successful without good organisation structure and team work.
After taking this course, I am so excited to begin taking more courses for the future. I am next ready to take the recommended TedTalk, "the secret structure of great talks."
In the next month I will identify donors who are passionate about my Organisations sector. I will build my team and allocate responsibilities to each team members so as to achieve our desired goal. Which is helping the vulnerable
Yea, great
Same here
Honest experience sharing will make a change
The introductory part pave the way and make all courses that are taught by Tom wolf More interesting,i will keep learning the the next two courses ( fundraising strategies and connecting with donor).
Au cours du mois prochain, j'identifierai cinq donneurs possibles.
Target group is very important
Understanding donors is a key role to practice
Developing the skills is necessary for fund raising
But very tactful
Yes setting up a special meeting with coworkers play a key role in fundraising
You have to practice on the field to gain more experience
In the next month i will identify more donor
To grow as a fundraiser, I will work to better identify the potential assets in the community around me, especially those with further networking potential.
I'm certain that after completion of this Course on Fundraising Specialization, I'd would be better equipped to embark on raising funds for nonprofit purposes by identifying my prospective funders & donors whose interests aligns with mine.
After taking this introductory course, I feel deeply motivated to fundraise more effectively in future
The fundraising readiness quiz was very helpful and has highlighted some preparatory steps we need to take before beginning a campaign
I will start by identifying a cause that is important to me and then find a platform to host the fundraiser. from there i will create a compelling story around the cause and share it with my network to raise awareness and encourage them to donate
This month I will hold my first small scale fundraiser.
Me too. I have learned much
I would take action by researching the cause, setting a fundraising goals, and creating a campaign page with a clear message and to action
What I understand so far from this course
What is fundraising
Fundraising is the process of soliciting support for a cause, the cause intended to make the world a better place. it is not about demanding money for a conventional business enterprise or enriching investors or company owners or shareholders of an organisation.
Myths 1: Fundraising is only about getting cash; we use the term in-kind donations to describe those that are not cash contributed. As we are just as successful if we get the things that the cash was supposed to purchase.
Myths 2: Raising money is all about knowing rich people; fundraising is about finding support even asking a close circle like families and friends, the more donors you find the more funding you can get
Myths 3: One person give while the other receives; it transaction in which each side gives something to the other in some cases, when you ask for support, is that you are offering a partnership where both sides have something to gain. Always think of what you will provide for the donor.
Myths 4: Tell a donor as much about your organisation or project as possible; in conversation with a donor is a chance to find out as much as you can about them and let them talk, look and listen when you are with a donor to find their areas of interest in advance.
Myths 5: Statistics and facts are the only things that matter; donors like to hear success stories not just facts but contributed impacts to people's lives,
Myths 6: A great fundraising is a superstar and works alone; fundraising is about leveraging all team abilities, achieving success is organizing a good team sport,
Myths 7: The Internet has completely changed how we do fundraising; remember that even if you go online to fundraise you still need to plan, strategize, identify prospects, follow up and court donors, design compelling materials, keep your websites up to date, collecting stories, recording keeping, reporting, servicing donors, acknowledging gifts.
Im going to do an fundraising event this month in my city to my children foundation.
I have identified new donors.
Completely agree with this sentiment. Gaining a deeper understanding of the fundamentals of fundraising and how to strategically align your organization's mission to those partners that share in the same is the key to further expanding the network. Thank you for making courses like this feasible to those looking to make a difference throughout the globe.
In the next month, I will take more fundraising courses.
This is also an exciting topic.
The main priority for me at the moment is to learn more about effective strategies of fundraising. The course has already helped me adjust the vision of our communication strategy and the overall understanding of fundraising. I am excited to learn more and apply the things learn in my work
Me too. There is lots to learn.
In the next month I will enroll in more courses to learn more about connecting with donors. I will also focus on having the organization's material ready to share with potential donors.
If all goes well, in the next few months I will set up a fundraising team, apply all the myths I have learned, and probably start fundraising at the end of the year. In the meantime, I could take more courses on fundraising.
After studying this course, I have placed myself in the driver's seat. What I will be working on is getting the right passengers onboard using the seven myths of fundraising .
I am glad to be here
I will defintely take more Tom Wolfs courses as well as identify some more donors.
The course has been very informative and practical. It has certainly proven that fundraising starts with having clarity on the mission (activity) which you wish to contribute to and motivation in supporting it. All this is within the reach of every person. Happy fundraising to everyone!
I will continue to grow in my fundraising education to further the goals of the organizations I work with.
Very useful information for future use
Over the next month, I plan to volunteer at a local nonprofit to get hands-on experience with their fundraising team. This will allow me to see the practical application of the techniques we've discussed in this course.
I've already scheduled two networking events in the upcoming weeks to connect with experienced fundraisers. I believe that learning from their experiences will greatly benefit my understanding and approach to fundraising.
After completing this course, I am more motivated than ever. My next step is to set up informational interviews with a few fundraising professionals in my network to gain deeper insights and potentially explore mentorship opportunities.
I've been inspired to create a small fundraising campaign for a cause close to my heart. Over the next month, I'll be brainstorming and planning the campaign, with the aim to launch it within the following two months.
To continue my learning journey, I've decided to subscribe to a few fundraising-related podcasts. This way, I can stay updated with the latest trends, success stories, and best practices in the world of fundraising.
I realize the importance of storytelling in fundraising, so I will be enrolling in a short storytelling workshop next month to improve my ability to connect with potential donors emotionally.
I'll be reaching out to a local charity to offer my newly-acquired skills on a volunteer basis. This will not only give me real-world experience but will also allow me to give back to the community.
In the coming month, I'm committed to reading at least two books on the subject of fundraising, to deepen my theoretical knowledge and complement what I've learned in this course.
I'll run a survey in my place of work to ascertain if my fellow co-workers know and understand our organizations mission and vision statement.
In the next few weeks I will focus on trying to come up with potential donor map that is a good fit to my organization

Being new to the game, I need much more information. Tom Wolf's courses are a great start and I think I will be expanding on that in the future. I also plan to get the leaders of my organization to commit to more sustainable sources of funding through lessons I have learned here.

Thanks to this course I am realizing how important fundraising could be in an organization and it's giving me motivation to start looking more deeply into ways of making it doable.
Certainly, this course is very effective for me in growing up with fundraising skills and knowledge. This understanding of fundraising will lead me to find possible donors for my leading youth forum.
I am really glad I took this course, in the next few months, I will make sure I start and complete all the fundraising courses on this platform so I can become an expert in fundraising and be able to utilize every bit of the knowledge learnt in my organization.
In the next 2 weeks, I will appoint my organization's fundraiser, and identify at least 3 prospective donors.
I am very grateful to Mr. Wolf for the insights. I have been on the fundraising space for a while now but after taking this course, I believe I am now better equipped to handle some of the challenges I have been grappling with for the longest time.
In the next month I will work towards identifying three possible donors within my area.
In the next month I plan to meet with community resources within my area to further my knowledge and understanding of how we can successfully partner within the community.
