Centre Fundraising Support
Welcome to the Centre Fundraising Support page
I really hope that the resources here will help you to fundraise in your local situations. It’s a very particular time, but I feel that our centres are able to adapt and meet the need of the Sangha online and I hope that the resources and best practice shared on this page also help us to survive and thrive financially.
