Welcome to The Environmental Fundraiser's Handbook. A four-part video miniseries about what it means to be a “good” environmental fundraiser in these times with real stories, practical insights, and new ways of thinking about fundraising. 

How can fundraisers communicate environmental issues with honesty, clarity and hope? 

In this episode, we focus on how we move beyond fear-based or overly simplified messaging towards storytelling that is values-led, authentic and grounded in purpose. Guests bring perspectives on what stories inspire action, what stories funders’ respond to and what a “good” environmental story can be.  Our speakers include:
