St George's House

St George's is a long-standing client, for whom we have provided both strategic and fundraising support since 1999.

The charity operates a drop-in centre for homeless people in Wolverhampton , as well as running a city-wide furniture recycling project. Our support has included facilitating the production of a development plan, researching funders, producing the case for support and in helping to generate funding bids.

Over the years, we have helped to raise over £600,000 for the charity, mainly from charitable trusts. This has mostly consisted of revenue funding to cover the staffing and running costs of existing work. Our fees for this work have averaged around 5% of the amount raised - a return of 20:1.

St George's Chief Executive Fazia Bano says: "As a small charity, we do not need an in-house fundraiser and certainly could not afford one. By working with WGC, we can buy in just the amount of help we need, as well as benefitting from their skills and experience. This has proven to be a very cost-effective way of developing our charity. We would happily recommend them to others."
