Formal Fundraising Assistance
FFA - fundraising from Trusts and Foundations
In the last 3 years, Luceo has assisted 40 organisations to submit formal applications of which 31 where successful (overall success rate of 78%!) Support secured for these charities range from R52k to R4.8m.
We are selective in which charities / projects we take on for these formal funding applications. If we proceed, the work is typically undertaken on a consultancy (i.e. time and materials) basis.
The process to complete formal applications normally entails:
-
Market research to identify funders. Some charities undertake this and start the Luceo engagement when they have identified a lead they want to pursue
-
Project selection with the charity - to decide which project to submit
-
Working on positioning of the charity & the project - possibly reviewing the TOC
-
Budget work
-
Gathering partners & experts
-
Repeat until all rounds of the process has been completed.​
