Shifting the power to the people you exist for
Speaker:
Vic Hancock Fell & Mary Mwangi
We have a responsibility to ensure that we recognise and respect the power of the people we exist for. In the context of our work at Raising Futures Kenya, as a White/Western led INGO, we have a responsibility to acknowledge and minimise our power in this space both as individuals and as an organisation. In recent years we have taken steps to address power imbalances at Raising Futures Kenya. In this 20-minute webinar we take a look at the concept of ‘shift the power’, and why it is so important for us as socially purposed organisations, especially those working in global solidarity. Vic and Mary will share some honest personal reflections and practical advice from their journey to shift the power, from the last four years.

How to harness the power of volunteers to increase your impact (and how to lead them!)
Speaker: 
Hugo Tagholm
Volunteers are crucial for small charity success – but with limited resources and ever-changing volunteer habits, it can be hard to carve out the time to make the most of the opportunities. In this live Q&A, we’ll chat with Hugo Tagholm, Chief Exec of Surfers Against Sewage, to find out how they extend their reach using local volunteers and how they use campaigning, empowerment, and trust to increase their impact. Join us live to have your questions answered!

But any organization and any size staff can find ways to make your fundraising program more effective. In this session, we’ll face the challenges of a small shop and provide practical tips on doing more with less.

How to cut through the noise with email marketing
Speakers: 
Amy Leighton, Paul Taylor and Emma Fortunaso
Email marketing is a crucial tool to engage with your supporters. But their inboxes are packed full of messages from other people and brands – all competing with your ask. So how can small charities give themselves an edge? Something that will increase the odds that people will open and act upon your emails? Join Amy, Paul and Emma from the JustGiving CRM team for a discussion on email marketing where they will show three of their all-time favourite emails. and tell you why they love them. Plus they’ll each share their favourite tips and tricks for emails when time, budget and resources are in short supply!

Using digital marketing to punch above your weight
Speaker: Jeff Boachie
A charity can do a fair amount to raise awareness of their activities using digital marketing techniques without spending a penny. However paid media is necessary when you want to go beyond what’s achievable using free marketing techniques. In this workshop I’ll be focusing on some top line tactical considerations around how to best utilise paid media, and the digital landscape, to maximise awareness, relevance and return on ad spend
