Fundraising (22nd June 2005) Heritage and memory organizations are increasingly engaging in many different kinds of digital projects large and small. These projects often need to be funded from outside sources, at least in the early stages, as it is difficult to create new funding streams for new initiatives. This workshop will address some of the key issues in planning and costing digital projects, identifying funders, writing grant proposals, and will discuss some of the major sources of funding available to not-for-profit organisations. Topics covered in this training day include: * Finding funders * Matching bids to funders needs * Proposal development * Writing and pitching proposals * Financial issues o Managing the project/programme finances o Cost and benefit analysis for planning expenditure o Tendering and procurement o Sustaining the funding stream http://www.kcl.ac.uk/kdcs/content/training_details.htm#fundraising What course attendees have said about KDCS training: - "Excellent coverage of information with apt description and explanation." - "The balance between group discussion and presentation was particularly good." - "This is excellent one of the best I've attended." - "It was very comprehensive as I thought of questions, they were answered almost right away.
