Fundraising
With many years experience both in the charity and corporate sector Event Matters has developed creative fundraising solutions which first define and then meet the organisational and financial objectives of each client.
Event Matters ensures that a detailed evaluation of the proposed strategy is completed and a variety of possible options are presented to the client.
Throughout the planning of each fundraising project Event Matters always balances the resources available and the event cost with the optimum potential revenue achievable and maximising the awareness of the charity.
Project plans, budgets and timescales are meticulously prepared in advance and guest invitations and attendance confirmed to ensure the success of each fundraising event. During and after an event we monitor and evaluate to ensure that repeat events become more and more successful and that relationships with donors are developed.
When fundraising we use a planning tool called The Fundraising Cycle to help plan, monitor and develop fundraising activities. Many techniques are used to communicate and interact with donors and potential donors, such as events, direct mail, competitions and lotteries. All these different activities are knitted together using this format ensuring a charity's fundraising activities benefit donors and beneficiaries to the utmost.
