141. Winning a £1m partnership for our small charity, (from the archive) with Pippa Hind-Walsh
Description
Many charities see the advantages of creating strategic, long-term partnerships with companies, rather than applying for those intensely competitive Charity of the Year partnerships. But how do you initially approach companies where there is a good fit? Even after you get that first meeting, how do you inspire them to want to partner? And how do you solve the challenges in bringing your two organisations together to achieve something that works really well for both parties? It’s not easy, but its less daunting if you can hear insights from someone who has already done these things. So I was delighted to be able to talk to Pippa Hind-Walsh, a smart fundraiser in a fairly small charity called Family Fund. She talks us through the process of approaching and building a fabulous, strategic partnership with McCain Foods, which has been worth well over £1m to the charity.
