As a funder it's easy to get positive feedback from charities when you are giving them money. In my years as a fundraiser, I'm ashamed to admit how many times I've given false praise to funders for fear of losing their support. Times are too tight to be difficult - it is perhaps why Crappy Funding Practices continues amuse and horrify me in equal measure. When we set out to build the GSR Foundation, we knew what we wanted to achieve, but were less clear about how we got there. To get us off the blocks, we gave a relatively high volume of unrestricted grants to a wide range of causes - resulting in the macro and micro data we needed to craft an effective long-term programme. Most charities spend unrestricted money on overheads like salaries, yet ask any fundraiser - these costs are always the hardest to raise. Restricted programme funds, on the other hand, remain comparatively easier to raise. This has never made sense to me - if the funder knows how to do the work better than the charity delivering it, why don't they do it themselves? So as we now look to evolve a selection of our single-year grants into significant multi-year partnerships - it makes me so happy to get genuine feedback from excellent partners like unconnected.org. Simply put, it is our view that by underwriting the core costs around a promising (or proven) product or programme - we'll be effective in helping our partners serve more people. Thank you Mea Thompson, Andrew Atkinson and team for partnering with us - very excited to see what we achieve together.

A special gift to our members for our 12th anniversary In commemoration of our 12th anniversary?this month, all CCGI members are invited free of charge to participate in a ground breaking conference, where we hope to be the catalyst for a global movement. Do you believe?that our small States can make a difference in the world, that we can overcome some of our challenges to be counted among the best in class? In his book, the Small States Club, Mr Armen Sarskessian described how?small countries did exactly that. He ends the book by saying that small states have a major role to play in righting the balance in the world when it comes to geopolitics and wars. On Thursday July 25th, we plan a one-day conference with persons from some of these small states including Botswana, Switzerland and the United Arab Emirates. This is led by Charlotte Valeur of the UK, who will be championing the call for the creation of an Alliance of Small States.?Join us as we delve into?crucial topics such as Artificial Intelligence (AI), Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) practices, Blockchain technology, and Climate Change. At CCGI, we believe?our small countries in the Caribbean are capable of doing great things; that we can change the?current trajectory of high crime and unemployment challenges. We hope you believe so too, and would be willing to be a part of the conversation.?
