To put it simply, a community fundraising manager organises events and campaigns that inspire the local community to donate to a cause. You're targeting your immediate geographical area, approaching members of the public, trusts and high-value donors. The day-to-day activities of a community fundraising manager can include recruiting volunteers, building relationships with major donors, managing your fundraising budget and handling important local accounts. This is the perfect job if you're a strong communicator and have outstanding people skills.
