Fundraising & Revenue Generation Strategy
The Fundraising and Revenue Generation Strategy focuses on revenue-generating priorities. Compared to peer communities, there is growth potential in sponsorships, arena advertising, programs, and new rates and licensing options. The 28 recommendations found in the Strategy look to support the Community & Corporate Services, Fire, Recreation Services, and Library Departments.

Fundraising Tool Kit for Community Groups
A Fundraising Tool Kit was developed to assist charities and non-profit organizations with fundraising efforts including planning, event promotions, donation tools, grant funding, social media, and more. The Tool Kit includes a template package that can be personalized to suit their needs and promotes access to ‘Grant Connect,’ a fundraising research tool designed to help find new funding prospects for both non-profits and businesses. This database can now be accessed in-person at each of the Selwyn Public Library branches.
