New Non-Profit Fundraising Guide & First Steps

Embarking on the journey of starting a non-profit is incredibly exciting, filled with passion, purpose, and the dream of making a real difference. But once that initial enthusiasm settles, a crucial question often emerges: how to ask for money effectively to turn your vision into reality? 

At IN Fundraising, we understand these crucial early stages, and we're thrilled to introduce you to our Case for Support service, designed specifically to help new non-profit fundraising efforts - and build strong foundations for funding in the years to come.

You might be asking, "What is a Case for Support?" For new non-profits, it's an indispensable foundational document that not only tells your non-profit’s story, it also clearly articulates your mission, outlines your initial goals, and explains why donors should invest in your grassroots movement. It answers the critical questions donors ask before making a gift, building immediate trust and demonstrating your organization's credibility even before you have years of impact to showcase. Our Case for Support is a professionally crafted, 14-17 page document that serves as the cornerstone of all your early fundraising communications.
