Fundraising for Educational Institutions

The global objective of the training course is to enable school staff to define their needs, develop a fundraising strategy and implement it throughout the school activities. The participants will be able to interact with their school stakeholders, provided with a set of tools ready to use in each educational and territorial context.

The course is structured over 5 working days and includes theoretical moments and individual or group work, alterneted with study visits to schools that have successfully conducted fundraising campaigns and specialized crowdfunding agencies.
