Fundraising for diversity projects – from idea to reality

Fostering diversity, equity, and inclusion in organizations requires more than good intentions—it demands resources. I can assist you in identifying the right formats, developing impactful projects, and implementing solutions that enhance both your organization and your contribution to a more inclusive society.

Developing ideas that align with your organization’s goals and aspirations.

Identifying the right funding sources to finance your projects.

Crafting tailored applications that stand out and maximize your chances of success.

How Our Process Works

​

1. Idea Development and Project Design​

We begin with an idea workshop to brainstorm potential projects and design solutions tailored to your needs and ambitions. I help you:

​

• Identify areas for improvement, such as recruitment programs, unconscious bias training, or digital and physical accessibility solutions.

• Develop projects with real value and clear objectives—both internally within your organization and externally in society.

• Incorporate standards and funding requirements to ensure your project appears relevant and strategically sound.

 

2. Finding the Right Funds and Financing Sources 

I assist you in identifying the best-fit funds and programs for your projects, including:

​

• Private foundations supporting sustainability, equity, and social initiatives.

• Public funding from EU programs such as Horizon Europe and Erasmus+, as well as Danish government grants promoting diversity and inclusion initiatives.

• CSR partnerships with companies seeking to support diversity projects as part of their strategy.

 

3. Writing Applications 

I ensure your application not only meets the funder’s requirements but also stands out. This includes:

​

• A clear and compelling problem statement that demonstrates the need for your project.

• A detailed project description outlining how you will achieve results.

• A realistic budget and timeline aligned with the funder’s criteria.

 

4. Implementation and Reporting

Once your project is funded, I help you:

​

• Implement solutions to ensure resources are utilized effectively.

• Report to funders to secure future collaborations and build credibility.
