Profile
Little big fund wants to empower social change visionaries with the understanding that fundraising is not daunting but rather, doable. Whether working for an existing organization or for one they are building, students of little big fund experience an antidote to the weightiness of asking for money. They get the tools, skills, peer support, best practices, and real-world experience they need to take control of the fundraising beast before they leave school. In their culminating project, students write a grant, submit it to a review committee, and defend the grant proposal in person to a grant committee of interested funders.
