WHAT ARE FUNDRAISING CONVERSATIONS?

We aim to bring you insights that strengthen your organisations and help you launch new projects or boost the existing ones. The live format means that you can join the conversation and directly ask your questions to our guests.

The interviews will take place every third Wednesday at 12:30pm, starting on 19th Jan 2022.
