Microgiving

This panel explores the great range of grant opportunities, focusing on microgiving compared to often-less-efficient macro efforts.

When it comes to making an impact in your community and beyond, it can feel like your efforts are a drop in the ocean. While on the other side, finding funding for your community project, art exhibition, or groundbreaking invention can be an ongoing cycle of red tape and rejection.

Microgiving is changing all of that. It uses small donations from individuals to collectively support a good cause or project.

Join our panel of leaders from three unique Sydney funders who will demonstrate how they are making widespread,sustainable impact using microgiving. Collectively, The Awesome Foundation, Blackbird Foundation, and Supper Sessions have donated over $150,000 in funding to hundreds of local NSW initiatives.

We’ll explore why and how charitable giving via microgiving is exploding - and how it compares to other forms of philanthropy.

Discover the financial benefits that come with incorporating microgiving into your fundraising strategy and the platforms that can help you reach an altruistic community of microgivers.

You may even walk away wanting to apply for - or create - your own grant!
