Prospecting on Peanuts

Trust and Foundation Fundraising

Jun 22, 2023

This week, as part of Small Charities Week, I hosted a lunchtime workshop outlining my top free resources for prospecting grant opportunities.

I had a handful of participants and before my ego had a chance to release the mind monkeys I had a word with myself. One kind participant unmuted themselves to specifically thank me for taking the time to provide the session.

That’s all you sometimes need. Change one thing, help one person, help one charity. Sometimes it is not about the great and the good, it is about the good who make it great.

Here are my top 7 free resources for grant opportunities -
