Funder drop-in: Making best use of your assets
About this event
Our funder and philanthropist drop-ins are for staff and trustees at grant-making organisations, and individual philanthropists on topics of interest to the sector.
Increasingly funders are thinking of ways they can take a ‘whole asset’ approach to achieve impact – not just via grants. Often an organisation’s biggest asset is its endowment and can be used to provide impact investments or catalytic capital. There are other assets too, such as your brand, your reputation, your power.
We often hear from impact organisations how challenging the financial environment is and taking a whole asset approach is a way to increase your support using what you already have.
During this online session NPC’s Alex Hayes and Gurmeet Kaur will discuss the best way to increase your impact using your assets as a funder.
Chatham House rule applies during this event.
