Charity and Fundraising Course

Shout out about your commitment to a good cause by setting up your own charity. Raise funds, create awareness and see change happen.

In this course, we’ll walk you through all the steps of creating your own charity or nonprofit, from conception through execution.

You’ll learn to run your organization like a business, so that every decision is strategic, spending is on a tight leash, and your dedication and efforts are applied to where they’re needed most.

Learn how to run a successful organization with little capital, how to build a team of volunteers, how to leverage what resources you already have, and how to create successful events to attract sponsors, donors, and the media.

Good intentions are the starting point, but you’ll need to rely on business savvy and long-term planning for your charity to enjoy meaningful, longstanding success.
