The Institute of Fundraising (Institute) is the professional body that represents fundraisers in the UK. Our mission is to support fundraisers, through leadership, representation, standard-setting and education, to deliver excellent fundraising.
At the core of the Institute lies membership, and we currently have 4500 Individual members and 250 Organisational members.
The Institute’s strategic objectives are to:
- Develop and increase membership.
- Champion and promote fundraising.
- Set standards and promote best practice.
- Support, develop and nurture the effectiveness of all fundraisers.
- Initiate, resource, develop and promote new fundraising products and techniques.
Started in 1983 by a group of fundraisers getting together, sharing their problems and resolving to tackle them by working collaboratively, the Institute was founded as The Institute of Charity Fundraising Managers, changing its name in 2002 to reflect the growing profession.
