The Fundraising Committee is yet a further way not only to get involved in Stage2 but gain fantastic and exciting work experience. The committee raises funds for numerous parts of Stage2 working through from finding potential donors to sending off applications. One of these areas is the subsidy policy which the committee has been very successful in raising money for so that all members can take part in every area of Stage2 without financial difficulty. It also gives everyone the opportunity to learn new skills no matter what age from writing funding applications to learning how to do your own accounts! I joined the committee when they were pilot schemes several years ago to learn something new. I never envisaged how useful the experience I've gained could be until recently, when applying to university and looking at voluntary work in my gap year. I am head and shoulders above the rest because not only do I hold the skills to be a great fundraiser I have been able to apply them successfully thanks to the Fundraising committee. This hands on experience speaks much louder than words and thanks to it I can spend my gap year doing exciting work involving fundraising and events management at home and abroad. Hope to see you on the committee soon! |
