We live and work in an uncertain environment. The economic and financial crisis that affects most of our European countries has a direct impact on the non-profit sector. Many YMCAs are struggling to survive and to deliver its programmes, facing drastic reductions in their budgets and lacking support from their traditional donors.
Is it possible to fundraise today?
