Fixing Fundraising podcast 🎧

Join @andykingraising and @tomdefraine as we hash out the biggest problems in the fundraising sector - from racist recruitment practices to donor power dynamics

[Fixing Fundraising podcast 🎧 @FixingFundPod]

But we know that these conversations cannot happen slap-dash. They need to be had well, had considerately, and lead to practical change. And one of the most important issues we've yet to address is fundraiser burnout. And the truth is, we're both incredibly tired. [3/4]

It’s not the great resignation: people want to work

It’s the great reset: people don’t want to work for companies that treat them like shit

Have you made a complaint to the @ChtyCommission? Would you be willing to speak about your experience (anonymously, with a voice modulator if necessary)? Our DMs are open and we'd love to hear from you.

[Fixing Fundraising podcast 🎧 @FixingFundPod]

We've changed our format slightly to deep dive into the big questions facing fundraisers. Our first episode: how do I complain to the @ChtyCommission and will anything change if I do?

[Fixing Fundraising podcast 🎧 @FixingFundPod]

Guess who's back? 👀

[Rosie Oldham @RosieOldham8]

I have serious podcast catchup to do and starting with this @FixingFundPod with @NonprofitAF and @theethicalrain @MichelleSMuri - it is AMAZING and every fundraiser should listen.

Over the moon to see this partnership go live. Together @OfficialFV and @TheSleepCharity are ensuring the 40% of UK adults with sleeping difficulties have someone to turn to. What a result: https://t.co/F6rCREeirb

Charity bods at all levels: Do you mainly consider yourself as part of a cause, or part of an org? Genuine question to inform something I’m writing. Thanks x

In light of further communication that is landing with members, survivors and complainants ONLY on twitter and no other platform, I ask this question again @clairerowney and @CIOFtweets

Who is in control of the investigation?
Who does know what is going on?
Who is accountable?

[Rebecca Cooney @RebeccaKCooney]

TW: Sexual assault allegations.

Thread: So it seems much of the anger in the #fundraising community right now stems from confusion over what was actually announced y'day.
Here's my understanding of situation at CIoF re: investigations into allegations of sexual misconduct. 1/?

#WeBelieve
@FundraiserSarah blog is well worth a read to understand the amount of anger in the sector over #CIOF . @liz_hallett

[Mandy Johnson (she/her) 🌈 @MsMandyJ]

The former CEO of @CIOFtweets claims he followed the "complaints and disciplinary processes".

When I reported abuse to him in writing, his PA arranged a meeting IN A PUB for him and me to discuss it...alone.

He then told me they were not going to investigate it.

HOW THE UK HAS INFLUENCED TOXIC FUNDRAISING PRACTICES IN THE US. From @theethicalrain podcast, hosted by @MichelleSMuri, with guests @andykingraising and @tomdefraine.

[Andy King @andykingraising]

Today, the sector is having an incredibly important conversation. How do we ensure that the people changing the world today are well enough to change the world tomorrow? I am proud to call @ClaireWarner my friend, and proud of her for making this happen: https://t.co/a8KqmktDKm

We love this 😍

[David Burgess @DavidBurgessFR]

Question - if we could start the charity sector again from scratch tomorrow, what from the current world would you keep?

@ConstantChanges Thanks Rickesh! 💙

THREAD: The core focus of our podcast is what we, as a sector, can do better. We've talked about everything from racist recruitment practices to donor power dynamics, but the truth is there's a lot of work to do, and a lot more noise needs to be made on certain issues. [1/4]

[Fixing Fundraising podcast 🎧 @FixingFundPod]

@Skipinder Thanks, Lesley! We were pretty nervous hitting publish on this but we hope it can help others unplug 💙

@danaksegal @andykingraising @tomdefraine You're the best 💙
