inspirational fundraising

Client Portfolio

Who else have we helped? Most of our clients are Christian agencies, churches or charities. A background in international mission provides us with a broad understanding of the challenges frequently encountered when fundraising within a faith-based community. Many non-faith organisations are also included in our portfolio. Although not necessarily identifying with our own faith, they do appreciate the ethos and integrity that we bring to the working relationship.

Some of the agencies we have worked with include:

Farm Crisis Network is a national charity that was set up to support the UK farming community during the Foot and Mouth epidemic in 2001. Since that time, its team of volunteers has been on 24-hour call as the additional strain of severe flooding, outbreaks of BSE, Avian Influenza and TB have meant severe hardship and anxiety for many farmers. GIVING THE BEST was able to help FCN develop a sustainable fundraising strategy during the years when the work was expanding rapidly. As a Retained Consultant, David Marfleet helped FCN with marketing and fundraising materials and eventually assisted in the recruitment and training of an in-house fundraiser.

"Your input on Friday was magnificent, thank you so much

for all that you presented and taught us. You are worth your

weight in gold and your rates have been generous in the

extreme.” Executive Director, UK charity
