FUNDRAISING WITH FOUNDATIONS
ALDA is constantly looking for new funding opportunities and in this respect, foundations represent an important source of funding, which we constantly monitor in order to identify new possibilities for funding our projects and activities. As far as foundations are concerned, a special personalized approach is needed when asking for a grant from them. The submission of a project proposal without prior contact is highly discouraged in most cases. That is why ALDA decided to develop a more strategic approach to foundations. In order to reach the foundations and assess the possibility to get granted, we would like to be presented to these foundations by our partners that have already worked successfully with them. We should decide about how to subdivide the contacts among the Governing Board Members. Please find below a list of foundations that we wish to focus on. They have been selected based on their objectives/ programmes and our needs.
