VSO and the Resource Alliance have teamed up to run a seminar and networking evening
for fundraisers interested in working in the developing world.
The seminar, to be
held on 24 July, will hear from fundraisers who have worked in developing countries
and will look at the issues surrounding skills sharing.

VSO is currently looking for fundraisers to take up two-year placements to pass 
their skills on to not-for-profit organisations in the developing world.

Speakers at the seminar will include Tony Elischer, who will host the evening and
share his first-hand knowledge of the need for fundraising skills, Liz Pyper, fundraising
development manager for WSPA who spent two years working as a volunteer fundraiser
for a small organisation in Ghana, and Eric Grounds, who will share the highlights
of a recent skill-sharing visit by a group of Indian fundraisers at Sue Ryder Care.
