Hi there
I work for an International Animal Protection organization with offices in various countries. One such office is in India and we're looking to start fundraising for our work there.
I have no knowledge of the Indian fundraising market other than some details of a GAYE scheme that CAF India run and I'm now looking for some help in building up my knowledge on this market.
If anyone has any info/experience they can share on this topic I'd be very grateful. I've set out some questions below but please don't feel limited to answering any/all of these as any info will be of help.
Okay here goes:
- What fundraising mediums are currently being used successfully in India i.e. Trust/Corporate fundraising, direct dialogue, direct mail etc? What is being tested?
- How developed are any of these mediums? (I'm aware that DM is somewhat difficult due to slow unreliable mail, absence of mature list industry etc)
- Does anyone know of any International organizations already successfully fundraising in India who might be willing to share ideas/experience?
- Does anyone know of any specialist fundraising agencies either based in the UK with experience of fundraising in India or based in India itself….in particular any based in or around Mumbai?
Thanks in advance for your help with this.
J.
