For NGO founders, CEOs, fundraising leads, program heads, social
entrepreneurs and teams who want to stop guessing and start building
a repeatable fundraising system.
Why 90% of NGOs fail at fundraising - and how to fix yours:
No responses to proposals. One-time funders who never come back.
Pitches that fall flat. You're not alone - and it's not your fault.
Most NGOs were never taught how fundraising actually works. FUNDED
changes that.
No responses
Your proposals are going into a void. We'll show you exactly why
and fix it.
No conversions
Funders read but don't commit. You're missing the conversion
layer.
One-time funding only
Donors give once and disappear. Relationship-building is a skill -
we'll teach it.
Wrong donors
Pitching to the wrong people wastes months. Learn to identify &
shortlist the right funders for your organisation.
Expert Faculty
Learn from people who've been inside the room
Not trainers. Not theorists. People who've made the decisions you're
trying to influence.

past 2 years.
Everything you need. Nothing you don't.
Packed with frameworks, live exercises, expert sessions, and real
teardowns every session leads to a tangible output you take home.
Learn how to set it all up in just 2 days.
Day 01
Understand the funding landscape and strengthen your fundraising
fundamentals
✦ Learn
where Indian NGOs actually get funded from, and how donor
behavior changes across CSR, HNIs, foundations, international
funders and multiple other sources.
✦
Understand ticket sizes, funding priorities, expectations, and
timelines so you can focus on the right donor conversations.
✦ Diagnose
why most fundraising efforts stall, and identify the gaps that
quietly block responses and conversions.
✦ See what
CSR managers really look for before they move a proposal
forward.
✦ Watch a
live proposal teardown to understand what creates confidence,
and what gets rejected quickly.
✦ Sharpen
your NGO positioning so your cause is clearly understood,
remembered, and differentiated.
Day 02
Build your donor pipeline and create a funder-ready system
✦ Learn
practical donor research and prospecting methods to identify the
right funders faster and more strategically.
✦
Understand what PSU decision-makers look for, and how
institutional fundraising thinking differs from other donor
types.
✦
Participate in live pitching and feedback so you can refine how
your NGO presents itself in real time.
✦
Build your funder-ready document checklist so your outreach
feels credible, structured, and complete.
✦ Learn
relationship-building and retention methods that help donors
stay engaged beyond the first conversation.
✦ Explore
the fundraising frameworks and systems that help you build
consistency without giving away the full formula.
Running on hope alone? That's not a fundraising strategy.
Fundraising nonstop ? You will get burnout and it will be never ending

took home from FUNDED.
★★★★★
I would highly recommend this workshop. The sessions were
interactive, hands-on and gave much needed clarity on how to
structure fundraising operations in an organisation. Bhagyashree
was patient and took the time to answer every single question put
to her, even staying back during lunch when needed. The practical
tips she provided based on her years of experience were
invaluable.

What I really liked was the breadth of content you covered. It was
well structured and clearly came from your own experience and
depth of work in the fundraising space. For someone like me, who
is still building clarity in this field, it gave a good amount of
food for thought and helped me see the different choices I can
make for Edspectrum Foundation. I also want to thank you for being
patient with my questions. You answered them with a smile,
calmness, and clarity, which made the space feel very comfortable
to engage in. Overall, I found the bootcamp meaningful and
practical, especially for someone who is trying to make better
fundraising decisions for their organisation.

★★★★★
It was an excellent way to reflect. The fundraising bootcamp
created a meaningful shift in how I view resource mobilization -
not as a reactive activity, but as a core strategic function of
the organisation. Earlier, fundraising felt largely synonymous
with writing proposals and chasing grants. Now, I see it as a
broader, more intentional process that closely aligns with the
mission, long term sustainability and organisational growth. A key
takeaway is the importance of mission-fit funding. Not all funding
is equal, and pursuing opportunities that align with our values
and goals strengthens both impact and credibility. Overall, the
bootcamp has equipped me with the mindset and tools to approach
fundraising in a more structured, strategic and sustainable way.

I'd like to extend my heartfelt appreciation to Bhagyashree and
"the collaborators" for organizing such a thoughtful and
well-structured fundraising bootcamp. The sessions covered
everything from the fundamentals of fundraising to more advanced,
strategic insights, making it incredibly valuable for participants
at all levels. I'm grateful I had the opportunity to attend and
learn from such a rich and engaging program.
