Cause4 introduced its 12 month graduate programme in April 2012 to attract more graduates with entrepreneurial skills to fundraising in the community, arts, sports and education sectors. The programme identifies and trains graduates with entrepreneurial drive, as well as passion and commitment to the charity and social enterprise sectors. The programme's participants have already raised more than £4 million for charitable clients since the programme began. Michelle Wright, CEO and co-founder of Cause4, said: "The Unltd funds will be spent on employing specialist senior support, as well as developing new course material and skills assessment tools, which will enable us to realise the full potential of this unique programme.” Untld is the UK’s leading provider of support to early-stage social enterprises. Through its core Awards programme, it provides funding for fast-growth organisations and entrepreneurs that are deemed to be creating a significant social impact, as well as fulfilling a particular demand. ## Advertisement Set up in 2009 by fundraiser and entrepreneur Michelle Wright, [Cause4](http://www.cause4.co.uk) works to help charities, social enterprises and philanthropists develop the innovation necessary to raise sustainable funds in this challenging economic climate.   * **[The Good Agency to help NSPCC improve their welcome and loyalty programme](https://fundraising.co.uk/2013/07/30/good-agency-help-nspcc-improve-their-welcome-and-loyalty-programme/)**( 30 July 2013) * **[2,000 charities to benefit from donation of 6.5 million nappies](https://fundraising.co.uk/2013/07/30/2000-charities-benefit-donation-65-million-nappies/)**( 30 July 2013) * **[Irish Cancer’s fundraising campaigns show big growth](https://fundraising.co.uk/2013/07/30/irish-cancer039s-fundraising-campaigns-show-big-growth/)**( 30 July 2013)
