Capital Appeals

There can be few things as important in an organisation’s development as getting a Capital Appeal right. For most, they will be the single largest fundraising campaigns they will ever run and present the opportunity to attract new donors, and grow the support of existing ones.

IFC can help with the entire Capital Appeal process, from carrying out an initial Feasibility Study, to providing expert guidance, mentoring and support for staff and trustees throughout the process.

With clients including the Royal Free Hospital, National Army Museum and Alton College, we have raised millions for causes in the UK and around the world. Get in touch to discuss your plans. […]

Developing New and Improved Income Streams

Whether you need support with major donors, grant makers, corporates, statutory grants or individuals donors, our world leading consultants can help. We have worked with organisations including Black Cultural Archives, the Lifeboat Fund and World Animal Protection to help them explore, understand and access new funding.

We bring hands-on expertise and knowledge of best practise from around the world to help our clients grow their income and maximise returns. Give us a call to see how we can help you. […]

Interim Management

Few organisations can afford to leave gaps in their fundraising programmes. We are adept at covering for staff vacancies even for extended periods of time, and use a professional network of senior experts who can not only keep things ticking over, but often substantially increase your revenue.

IFC consultants have all worked as front line fundraisers and know from experience the challenges faced by you every day of the year. Read how we have worked with the National Army Museum to help them fill gaps in their fundraising team and let us know if we can do the same for you. […]

We believe in the ability of the voluntary sector to effect real change in society, at a local, national and global level. That’s why we do what we do. That’s why we offer free services like First Fridays and Top Table, alongside our professional consultancy services. And its why we will never work with an organisation whose aims we cannot wholeheartedly endorse.

A better, fairer world is possible
The passion, expertise, dedication and innovation within the voluntary sector can bring genuine social change
