Fundraising

Fundraising for Education South Africa

A leading South African education organization was having trouble meeting its annual budget; it had experienced a deficit for two years.  The organization hired us to help get its funding back on track and rebuild relationships with donors. Through our fundraising strategy and full service implementation, the client raised more than US$3 million during our engagement, balanced its budget, and secured funding to reinstate key programs.

Event Management

Fundraising Event Planning African Women

A Washington DC-based women’s network wanted to celebrate an important milestone: its 5th Anniversary. Though the organization had previously organized many events, this was its first attempt to plan a true fundraiser. The Executive Director sought our help with event management, fundraising strategy, and volunteer management. The event resulted in a sizeable net profit for the organization and guests were honored to meet and interact with special guests, including an Ambassador and celebrity guest performers.

Most importantly, the Executive Director was able to focus her attention on representing the organization at the event and networking with old and new supporters, secure in the knowledge that the details were being expertly handled by the ConceptLink team and volunteers.

  • Full Service Event Management: Fundraising Dinners, Receptions, Conferences, Friendraisers
  • Volunteer Management
  • “Finishing Touch” Event Planning Package

Communications & Social Media

Social Media for Nonprofits

A 60-year-old Africa education and policy organization wanted to launch a social media presence in time for its major annual gala and conference. We set up and managed their Twitter and Facebook accounts and developed a social media campaign to promote the events. By pushing relevant content, building their audience, and spotlighting their impressive gala honorees, we helped them gain hundreds of  Twitter followers and thousands of Facebook likes in just a few months.  During the gala and conference, our team was also on-site to tweet live, thereby expanding the reach and messaging to a wider audience. Nearly 400,000 accounts received tweets during the events.

CLIENT TESTIMONIALS

I highly recommend Africa-focused organizations work with women-owned ConceptLink for event planning and fundraising strategies. They are amazing!
Semhar Araia, Executive Director, Diaspora African Women's Network (DAWN) http://dawners.org →
ConceptLink is a rare combination of visionary and organizer. In working with dozens of consultants annually I can testify that balancing storytelling, entertainment and fundraising is always their biggest challenge. ConceptLink had more complexities to contend with than many, yet tackled these obstacles more gracefully than most.

Jerryanne has transformed the fundraising / development function at the Student Sponsorship Programme (SSP). She has been extremely effective at taking our relationship with donors to a new level.  Through Jerryanne's efforts, SSP is fulfilling its objective of educating South Africa's future.

African Rainforest Conservancy (ARC) brought ConceptLink on board to help ARC think through its media outreach strategy. The team first sat down with us to review our current media list, media strategy, and media goals. From there they created a robust spreadsheet of media contacts customized to fit our mission, goals, and taking into account our available resources. A final meeting allowed us to refine our strategy and we walked away with a solid media list and the tools we needed to get our message out to a variety of sources. We would definitely recommend ConceptLink to nonprofits working in Sub-Saharan Africa and look forward to working with ConceptLink again ourselves one day soon!
