Fundraising Nest Partnership Education

At the Fundraising Nest we want to be the source of all things that enhance professional fundraising development, 
locally, nationally, and globally.

We are driven by the philosophy that choice of individuals to freely choose programmes that work for them needs to be supported, celebrated, and shared. We want fundraisers to be able to choose what they learn, how they learn and from who they learn – this requires a collaborative approach to the people that can and do deliver the education and experiences that fundraisers need and want.

Although we will deliver our own events, online learning, access to webinars and course we are committed to collaborating with other partners that we know have expertise, knowledge and more importantly share the same values and philosophy as we do.

Keen to partner with us to offer opportunities to our fundraising community?
