Dear Do, Climate Change was expected to remain the biggest challenge for sustainable development during this century. But the beginning of the 2020s witnessed an unprecedented pandemic that resulted in millions of people being pushed into poverty, a high level of unemployment was recorded, education suffered a setback, and healthcare services declined in most countries around the world. Undoubtedly, this chaos has undermined the grant fundraising processes, yet NGOs have emerged stronger than before in addressing it. They play a more significant role in addressing the pandemic issues, including spreading health education and ensuring access to basic needs and necessities for the poor and vulnerable communities during the lockdown. NGOs have now adopted digital technology more than before for raising funds and networking and mobilization. Donor grants have become more flexible as funding can now be used for emerging needs and can be stretched for a longer time. According to the Council of Europe, there has been "a surge of volunteering and solidarity in several communities, both in organized and informal civil society." Without losing hope, NGOs are continuing to work towards a better world. The beginning of 2022 is the right time to plan, build and engage. fundsforNGOs Premium offers an immense number of tools to help you develop your strategy.
