Charity is taken very seriously. Not even finished yet
Having thought over the essence and details of the project, they begin to collect money for it.
This is explained, among other things, by the fact that in these countries the state never
did not finance the entire social sphere. A significant part of the problems
they only decided charity organisations who could hope in
financially only on yourself, on your ability to attract a sponsor,
organize work, achieve a good reputation. In Russia it is very common
the thought of where to get money for a social project comes last.
Funding is provided mainly by government organizations.
The problem of finding funds for organization or implementation
specific social projects is currently one of
basic, but it cannot be called well developed, meaningful in

Hello! In this article we will talk about a new area of ​​activity - fundraising, which is increasingly used by charitable and non-profit organizations in our country.

Today you will learn:

  • What is the job of a fundraiser?
  • What sources are used to raise funds;
  • What technologies and methods are used by fundraising firms;
  • What are the features of this activity in Russia?

What is fundraising

Any organization needs a constant flow of resources. Some need funds and volunteers for charitable purposes, others need financial investments for confidence or development.

In Russia, most non-profit and non-profit organizations do not engage in systematic and thoughtful fundraising. Therefore, they often face the issue of lack of money, volunteers or partners for cooperation.

The new term “fundraising” is increasingly found in the media. It means a special collection method financial assets and different resources for a specific project. Non-profit organizations that need volunteer or financial assistance are increasingly resorting to it.

The designation comes from the English combination “to raise fund” and literally translates as “raising funds.”

In developed countries, fundraising has long been actively used to raise funds for the following purposes:

  • Capital for launching and interesting work;
  • Financing developments and technical projects in science;
  • Maintaining amateur teams and supporting sports events;
  • Sponsoring candidates or headquarters in the political arena during elections;
  • Charitable needs;
  • Material support for cultural events, theaters or museums.

Traditional fundraising is just one area of ​​work. The result could be volunteers' personal time, various goods and services, discounts on procedures, or generous patrons of the arts. The latter can help with promotion and advertising, provide transport or premises for activities non-profit organization.

Types of fundraising

Experienced fundraisers are becoming increasingly sought after specialists in Russia. This is the name given to professionals who raise funds using various methods and methods.

In Europe and the USA, companies providing similar services on a contractual basis have been operating successfully for a long time. A striking example of fundraising is the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York. Its staff officially employs more than 70 specialists, whose task is to collect donations and charitable contributions, and search for patrons of art to maintain the collections.

Fundraising objects can be the release of a disc by a beginning group or the arrangement of a children's playground. At a serious level, this means organizing international competitions or supporting long-term scientific research.

In European countries, entire companies and firms are professionally involved in strategy development, staffed by experienced marketers, managers and lawyers.

Professional fundraising can be project-based or operational. In the first case, it takes place for a specific event or startup. In the second, resources are attracted to ensure the activities of the fund and maintain its stable operation.

In addition, fundraising can be divided into two main types:

  • Interior: the search for new resources and sponsors is dealt with by the managers of the organization itself;
  • External: For successful work third-party consultants or professional fundraisers, special consulting companies are involved.

Fundraising in Russia

In our country, the number of firms and specialists professionally working to collect finance and resources increases every year.

Appearance large number non-profit organizations, problems with funding funds from the state lead to the need to hire professionals.

Russia lags significantly behind the United States and Europe in the number of people and companies constantly participating in fundraising projects from different sides.

Three problems hinder rapid growth:

  • The distrust of ordinary people towards volunteer organizations and rich patrons of the arts;
  • Reluctance to forcibly transfer contributions (especially when the standard of living of the benefactors is low);
  • Lack of knowledge about the activity charitable foundations, their closedness for the majority of participants.

Nevertheless, the Association of Fundraisers already operates in Russia. Created in 2013, it provides ongoing training to professionals through master classes, seminars and brochures. She sets herself the task of turning the movement into a system that in a few years will unite all professionals and raise the status of their work to the proper level.
