Fundraising

Put the pieces of your fundraising jigsaw together with our training, resources, and funding hub.

VAW Fundraiser - our new service. Read the news article.

See our Funding Hub for more information about the "Funding Mix" - Grants, Loan finance, Donations and sponsorship, Commissioning and procurement, and social enterprise.

When your organisation has a range of ways to raise income for its projects and programmes, and is not dependant on just one (eg grant funding), we call this "sustainable funding". Our Funding Hub helps you to explore the different options and find the right "Funding Mix" for you. Our Organisational Development team can also help you, as can our training courses. Thanks to funding from various sources, we are able to offer free training to members of VAW this year. See the Training section for details.
