May 2024 Power Hour

Can you ever be comfortable with major donor fundraising?

Major donor fundraising operates in a world of wealth and power that can throw up frequent moral and ethical questions for fundraisers, leaders and charities. There’s an underlying discomfort and clash of values for so many working in this space. From the huge disparities in wealth to donor-led rather than beneficiary led forces.

How do you navigate these while at the same time raising large gifts for your amazing cause?

Join Michelle Shireen Muri, Co-Founder of Community Centric Fundraising in conversation with major donor specialist Louise Morris on Thursday 2nd May 1200-1300 UK time.

You’ll leave with:

• An understanding of what Community Centric Fundraising is and why it’s so vital for all organisations.

• Some of the key principles of Community Centric Fundraising and how you can put these into practice in your major gift programmes – whether you’re just starting out, or whether you have a number of large donors.

• The knowledge and confidence to challenge the way things have been done and to evolve fundraising at your organisation

Michelle has crafted her career with 15 years of resource generation through social justice movements, and her approach fosters a critical lens towards fundraising and a deep love of community solidarity. She believes there is deep power and personal healing in the work of generating resources from a values-aligned space. She speaks globally and we’re so delighted she’s joining us for this Power Hour!

The event will be recorded and emailed to everyone’s who’s registered and will be live captioned.
