Strong Foundations

We are pleased to announce Strong Foundations, a six-day training course for the staff of charitable foundations.

Strong Foundations, which takes place over two three-day modules, adapts the key elements of The Philanthropy Workshop (TPW), our leading international donor education programme, to the needs of the people who staff and advise charitable foundations and individuals.

The course, for a group of up to twelve individuals, is an intensive one, involving seminars, role plays, site visits and group discussions.

At the end of Strong Foundations, participants will have :

  • A conceptual framework for devising and honing a philanthropic strategy
  • The tools they need to engage their boards of trustees and help them to achieve their goals
  • The skills to perform advanced due diligence on potential grantees, to make effective grants, and to evaluate their impact

Module One takes place in London from 1 - 3 October 2008, with Module Two to take place in early 2009.

The cost of both Modules is £4,000, discounted to £3,000 for the staff of foundations or grant-making trusts that are registered charities.
