Re: [Tower Ravens DART] Fundraising update meeting

Hi all Just a little reminder that next week we have a fundraising update meeting. We agreed that by next week we'd have an action plan in place for each of the bits, and to have set up any preliminary things to start the process. For the meeting next Tuesday can you try to make as much progress as you can please, and do a quick update at the meeting of where you've got to? If your name isn't on the table below, you want to come to DART and you don't have another Ravens organising role please consider where you can be most helpful. Details for next Tuesday's meeting soon. Thanks Martin *Task* *Target* *Key dates* *Lead* *Team* Crowd funding. Easy to set up an appeal page on www.gofundme.com or justgiving.com Promote through all our social media activity, personal networks and also possibly through a bit of PR in The Nut etc. £2000 Set up Dec 19, promotion ongoing. Aim to reach target by Mar 20 Clare Apply for grants. Typically small grants from charitable trusts that specifically support arts, dance, cultural, community groups in London, women's projects etc £5000 First application Dec 19 Emma S Tori (with help from Hannorah) Corporate sponsorship. Seek corporate sponsorship from some relevant brands, businesses who would be interested in supporting us, pubs we visit regularly. Consider what we could offer them in return. £1000 Identify strategy Dec 19 First letters to potential sponsors Jan 19 Ellie L Hannah TD Events. Hold a couple of fundraising events – a pub quiz or ceilidh. Requires a bit of team effort and sourcing a free venue is critical. Also, a Day of Dance or mass fundraising crawl where Ravens (and possibly other teams) try to raise as much as we can towards the trip. Try to get busking spot at a station or underground. £1500 Ideas and proposed times by Dec 19 Will Miriam _______________________________________________ Tower Raven's mailing list team(a)towerravens.org.uk
