The 2030 Agenda is universal and calls for action by all countries to ensure no one is left behind. It requires partnerships between governments, the private sector, and civil society. ✅️ The Sustainable Development Goals can only be realized with a strong commitment to global partnership and cooperation to ensure no one is left behind in our journey to development. ✌️ 🌎 🌏 🌍 Avinjo.org - Empowering NGOs Avinjo #Avinjo #NGO #fundraising #crowdfunding #GlobalSouth #nonprofit #SDG17 #Agenda2030 #partnershipsforthegoals Source: https://lnkd.in/ejeKUVb

Can grassroots NGOs survive in the face of increasing competition for funds? There's a growing trend of large corporates and philanthropic organisations establishing their own fundraising teams to support their social impact work. This often results in unintended consequences. One of the major impacts is felt by grassroots NGOs, who often struggle to secure adequate funding due to stiff competition for limited resources. While corporates bring a new perspective and resources to the sector, grassroots NGOs offer unique perspectives and serve as lifelines for marginalised communities. Striking a balance where both corporate initiatives and grassroots NGOs can thrive is crucial. Can we create a world where large corporates and grassroots NGOs can co-exist? Or is this too idealistic? . . . . #Memes #Fundraising #SocialSector #CSR #Nonprofits #NGO #SocialImpact #Communications #SimitBhagatStudios

One of the forms of support most often requested by local organizations is help in mobilizing resources- primarily financial. Under NPI EXPAND, we took multiple approaches to providing this support, but I sometimes think our approaches are based too much on western notions of charity. Check out my latest blog on the topic and join us for our webinar to explore this issue in more depth. https://lnkd.in/ey-MU-YW

Arguably, the biggest challenge is the #developmentsector is #funding. Smaller the organization, working with the most under represented groups, and in the remotest and backward districts, lesser are the chances to get #discovered and funded by any #csr organization or anybody else. I have met with several founders who struggle with raising even minimal capital to run their organizations. Few possible routes to choose are - 1. Finding a larger-scale nonprofit that can #subgrant to the implementing organization. 2. Getting #incubated and receiving a seed funding from a handful of available such orgs. Very few CSR #leaders actually take the pain to find and directly fund almost invisible small scale NGOs which are doing great work. Kudos to them all. This leads me to a fundamental question- Why can't we mainstream funding of small-scale non-profit organizations. Further, I want to deliberate on what are the challenges, in addition to compliance related concerns, that #funders face when trying to support a lesser known NGO. And, how can an NGO survive in its first 2-3 years when they can't raise funds from any institutional funders. Inviting sector professionals to share their views.

Bridging the technology gap is crucial for a more equitable society. Your unused devices can help provide access to essential tools and resources for those in need. By donating, you can make a lasting impact and help create a future where technology is accessible to all. Let's work together to bridge this gap.  ----- Discover more at! https://lnkd.in/di-RBJFq . . . . #BridgingTheGap #TechForAll #DigitalInclusion #DonateDevices #TechEquality #Empowerment"

Through this series, our primary goal is to impart knowledge and promote awareness about the Sustainable Development Goals (#SDGs). Let’s continue with the SDG16-SIX-DAY-SERIES This is day 3 Ongoing and new violent conflicts around the world are derailing the global path to peace and achievement of Goal 16. In 2021, the world experienced the highest number of intentional homicides in the past two decades. ❗️ Structural injustices, inequalities and emerging human rights challenges are putting peaceful and inclusive societies further out of reach. To meet Goal 16 by 2030, action is needed to restore trust and to strengthen the capacity of institutions to secure justice for all and facilitate peaceful transitions to sustainable development. ⚠️ 🌎 🌏 🌍 Avinjo.org - Empowering NGOs Avinjo #Avinjo #NGO #fundraising #crowdfunding #GlobalSouth #nonprofit #SDG16 #Agenda2030 #peace #justice #institutions Source: https://lnkd.in/ejeKUVb

Now that you’ve secured funding, SO WHAT? NGOs often face several misconceptions about what it means to secure funding including how the money can be used and the frequency with which it will flow in. Reading these experiences pioneered by Emily Collins-Ellis was eye-opening and refreshing. Read more: https://lnkd.in/duQi5uKg Some of the experiences we liked included: 1. You will probably need to say no more than yes to how the money is spent or where it comes from. (Thanks to Dr. Daniela Lloyd-Williams) 2. You may still need to convince people internally about how to use funds - even after they have been secured. 3. Grant-makers are similar to fundraisers - it’s all about relationship management, raising and distributing funds. (Thanks to Alisha Pomells) What do you believe are the misconceptions about NGO funding and NGO Grantmaking? I.G. Advisors | Global Fund for Children | #GoodNightOut | civicfutures.org
