While higher income earners are also priced out of the market, the solution isn't to subsidize home ownership further, it is to support more non-market #housing. If we can build enough non-profit housing to make up a sizable portion of options, the market costs will adjust to compete, providing higher income earners with more options without leaving lower income households behind. https://bit.ly/3Vqyn5X

***THE FUTURE OF FUNDING*** I’ve been asked to deliver a session on this subject a few times now over the past couple of months on behalf of Cwmpas and Start Something Good, alongside various partners such as Givey, The National Lottery Community Fund, the WCVA | CGGC’s Catalyst Cymru project, Coalfields Regeneration Trust, Bridgend County Borough Council, Social Business Wales, and a number of Shared Prosperity Funded projects. Here are my key takeaways: - 1. Grant funding opportunities are reducing and are therefore more competitive. To be dependent on grants alone is extremely high risk. 2. Continuation/repeat funding is extremely rare. Therefore, groups need to think strategically about what funds they go for and when. 3. Third sector groups need to consider multiple income sources to better their chances of sustainability and survival. Other funding avenues could include corporate sponsorship, fundraising, and contract delivery (tendering)… or ideally, a combination of all the above. 4. Contract delivery is a very realistic and sustainable income stream for many groups. More on this subject can be found here (https://lnkd.in/e8v5yKBT). 5. Fundraising requires strategy! Over £10 BILLION is donated in the UK each year. Simply putting a “Donate here” button on a website will achieve nothing (there’s a lot more to it!). Understand which is the best digital platform for you, who your potential donors are, where you can reach them, and what your message will be. For more information you can access some of my slides here (https://lnkd.in/eGg3UPHN), or some relative blogs here (https://lnkd.in/eGipf-Yj). #Funding #Grants #Charities #ThirdSector #Communities

🏠 Non-profit housing providers are the unsung heroes of our communities, but they face mounting challenges and ever-dwindling support. As they strive to meet the growing demand for affordable housing, they encounter numerous obstacles along the way. 🔍 However, there's hope on the horizon! The Centre's FREE self-evaluation Organizational Compass tool was designed specifically by and for the sector. This tool empowers organizations to assess their operations, identify areas for improvement and potential blind-spots, and streamline processes to better serve their communities and save time and precious funds. ✨ By leveraging this tool, non-profits can optimize their resources, enhance efficiency, and ultimately make a more significant impact on the lives of those in need of affordable housing. 🤝 The Centre believes that in order to fulfill its mandate and effectively address the housing crisis, the community sector must be proactive and bold. For us, that means giving the sector the means to succeed: https://lnkd.in/g58iGcgZ #AffordableHousing #NonProfit #CommunityImpact #HousingCrisis
