Community-centred fundraising is all about putting the people you serve first. It is rooted in equity, collaboration and social justice to strengthen our communities. It’s changing how organizations approach fundraising and encourages the industry to raise critical questions about our work.

She shares how we can shift our messages and mindset to align with the principles of community-centred fundraising.
