African NGOs & Fundraising – Ask the Experts

​Accessing sustainable funding remains one of the biggest challenges for African NGOs. Traditional grants are becoming harder to secure, donor expectations are shifting, and the pressure to diversify income is growing.

​At the same time, new opportunities are emerging around proximity, equity, and trust-based philanthropy.

​This upcoming NGO Power Talk webinar offers African NGOs a practical space to engage directly with experienced fundraising experts.

​Participants will:

• ​Hear grounded insights into what’s changing in the African fundraising landscape

• ​Learn tested strategies and approaches from sector experts

• ​Receive responses to real-life fundraising questions submitted in advance and during the session

• ​Connect with peers across the continent facing similar challenges

​Panellists:

• ​Dr Michael Kiragu, Founder and Principal Consultant, Bell Consultants

• ​Lucy Njue, Founder and Executive Director, Realtime Insights

• ​Allwell Akhigbe, Co-Founder and Chief Executive Officer, Travaille Ensemble

• ​Chantel Cooper, Chief Executive Officer, Children’s Hospital Trust

​Unlike a typical webinar, this is a live consultation, designed around open dialogue and practical guidance.

​The NGO Power Talk webinar series, an initiative of @AfricanNGOs and Hexa Media Africa, aims to equip African nonprofit leaders with strategies, insights, and resources to strengthen their work and build long-term sustainability.
