Resource sustainability playbook

Overview

Achieving resource sustainability is essential for social service agencies to ensure they can continue delivering impactful services to the communities they serve. At its core, resource sustainability is about diversifying funding streams, strengthening fundraising capabilities, and fostering a culture of giving within the sector.

Implementing sustainable fundraising strategies

To support agencies in driving more sustainable resource strategies, the Sustainable Fundraising Strategies for NPOs Playbook has been developed. This guide empowers organisations to:

• Gain an overview of how to build your fundraising capabilities

• Identify areas for improvement in your fundraising efforts

• Plan the course of corrective action and achieve your fundraising goals

• Cultivate a broader culture of giving within the social service sector

In addition to the playbook, NCSS and the Social Service Institute (SSI) have introduced e-learning modules. These modules provide an engaging and accessible way for social service professionals to explore the playbook’s insights. These are part of over 100 hours of complimentary courses available to all social service professionals starting FY2024.

Explore how you can transform your organisation’s resource strategies for a more sustainable future to the communities you serve.
