Help with the fundraising team
The Society is looking for someone to join our fundraising team to help increase the monies received from donations and legacies. With the increased awareness by the community of the value of importance of the canal, there is a real need (and opportunity) for us to obtain donations to help support and protect the canal. We have various initiatives underway and the role would be to help the team put these into practice, along with bringing your own ideas to our future plans.
Leaving a bequest is also a wonderful way to leave a gift for both the present and future generations. This is a longer term initiative and over the last few years we have received over £200,000 of legacies, ranging from a few thousand pounds to more substantial amounts. These monies have been used towards various projects including the new moorings at Farnborough, our planned new Kitty electric boat and funding tools for general maintenance along the towpath.
With the community aware that this wonderful canal amenity needs to be supported there is an opportunity to encourage donations and legacies to fund various projects. Would you be interested in joining the team to help plan and support this work?
What skills do I need?
It is critical that we increase our income through
donations, membership, grants and engaging local businesses. We are building a
team to support fundraising and welcome help from anyone with experience in
this area.
