SUMMARY
This three part guide from David Burgess (Apollo Fundraising) challenges you to reconsider what you think you know about fundraising, tackling how you communicate and share ideas, getting beyond embarrassment and moving away from being boring!

was talking about?

am no clearer about what it is they are trying to do than I was at the start.
