Can you help shine a light on fundraising in Wales? Our last study mapping voluntary income was during the pandemic.

We need to hear from not-for-profit organisations operating in Wales of all sizes, whether you do very little fundraising or a lot. Your participation will help organisations across Wales to make better informed decisions about fundraising.

All survey responses will be anonymous, and the findings will be shared in a report freely available from WCVA.

If you are responsible for fundraising in your organisation, please complete the survey by 13 June. Click https://online1.snapsurveys.com/at1jt1 for the survey.

You will need to have information about your income for the year ending 2024 to hand to be able to fully answer all of the questions.
