[lang_en]Cultivate community fundraising in 2010
This exciting new course is about raising funds from local communities through developing volunteer networks. Drawing from marketing theory, it demonstrates why, in the current economic climate, it is particularly important to take a marketing approach to identify appropriate fundraising activities and develop a community fundraising programme which is supporter led. At the same time it provides lots of practical tips for carrying out community fundraising activities such as events, sponsored events, collections and raffles. Opportunities for maximising income through Gift Aid are highlighted.
It emphasises the importance of good practice in management including planning fundraising activity, and recruiting, supporting and developing volunteers to achieve fundraising success. However, it also introduces the concept of leadership and the importance of communicating an appealing vision which is attractive to volunteers.
Whether you are looking to start community fundraising from scratch or you want to reinvigorate an existing community fundraising programme, this course should be of interest to you.
The trainer, Eileen Kinsman, has twenty years experience in the third sector as a practitioner, teacher and trainer, including as a community fundraiser with Save the Children.

“Very informative. Great resource pack/tools as well” (Emma Marshall, Age Concern Powys)

“One of the most useful courses I have attended in a very long time.” (Diane Porter, Clwyd Special Riding Centre)

Mae’r cwrs cyffrous hwn yn ymwneud â chymunedau lleol yn codi arian drwy ddatblygu rhwydweithiau gwirfoddol. Gan dynnu ar ddamcaniaethau marchnata, mae’n arddangos pam ei bod yn arbennig o bwysig, yn yr hinsawdd economaidd presennol, i fabwysiadu ymagwedd farchnata er mwyn nodi gweithgareddau codi arian priodol a datblygu rhaglen codi arian gymunedol sydd wedi’i harwain gan gefnogwyr. Ar yr un pryd mae’n darparu llawer o gyngor ac awgrymiadau ymarferol ar gyfer cynnal gweithgareddau codi arian cymunedol megis digwyddiadau, digwyddiadau noddedig, casgliadau a rafflau. Mae cyfleoedd ar gyfer sicrhau’r incwm uchaf posibl yn cael eu hamlygu drwy Gymorth Rhodd.
Mae’n pwysleisio pwysigrwydd arfer da wrth reoli yn cynnwys cynllunio gweithgaredd codi arian, recriwtio, cefnogi a datblygu gwirfoddolwyr er mwyn sicrhau llwyddiannau codi arian. Fodd bynnag, mae hefyd yn cyflwyno’r cysyniad o arweinyddiaeth a phwysigrwydd cyfleu delwedd atyniadol sy’n ddeniadol i wirfoddolwyr.
P’un a ydych am ddechrau codi arian ar sail gymunedol o ddim neu os hoffech adfywio rhaglen codi arian gymunedol bresennol, dylai’r cwrs hwn fod o ddiddordeb i chi.
Mae gan yr hyfforddwr, Eileen Kinsman, ugain mlynedd o brofiad yn y trydydd sector fel ymarferydd, athrawes a hyfforddwr, yn cynnwys fel codwr arian cymunedol gydag Achub y Plant.

“Addysgiadol iawn. Pecyn/offer adnoddau gwych hefyd” (Emma Marshall, Age Concern Powys)
“Buddiol iawn” (Geoff Greaves, Menter Gymunedol Ashfield)
