One-to-One Support: What do grantees choose?
Explore our catalog of coaching and consulting project ideas — built from more than 600 recent projects — and see what capacity building looks like in practice.
Communications & messaging
12 customisable projects
Advocacy campaign strategy & design
Challenge:
“You want to influence policy or shift public discourse but your advocacy efforts are unfocused — you don't know who to target, what to say, or how to mobilise others.”
Brand identity & visual guidelines
Challenge:
“Your visual identity is inconsistent across documents, social media, and presentations — it looks amateurish and undermines the credibility of serious work.”
Communications strategy development
Challenge:
“Your communications are completely reactive — you lurch from one announcement to the next with no plan, no consistency, and no shared sense of what you are trying to say.”
Crisis communications support
Challenge:
“A reputational threat has emerged and you have no plan, no designated spokesperson, and no agreed message — and the clock is ticking.”
Email marketing strategy & setup
Challenge:
“You have a growing contact list but no real email programme — newsletters go out when someone remembers to write one, and donor communications are inconsistent.”
Impact messaging & key narrative development
Challenge:
“Different staff say completely different things about your work — your messaging is inconsistent, too technical, or so vague it could apply to anyone.”
Impact storytelling for fundraising & comms
Challenge:
“Your impact is real but you communicate it through data and activity lists — donors and partners can't connect emotionally with what you actually do.”
SEO & digital presence optimisation
Challenge:
“Your organisation is invisible in search results — people who would benefit from your work, or want to fund it, simply cannot find you online.”
Social media strategy & content planning
Challenge:
“Your social media is sporadic and low-engagement — you post when you remember to and have no real sense of whether it is doing anything useful.”
Spokesperson & media training
Challenge:
“Your leaders avoid media opportunities — interviews go off-message when they do happen, and your organisation's voice is far less influential than it should be.”
Strategic and Leadership Communication
Challenge:
“Major organisational decisions are not landing internally or externally — messages are inconsistent, staff feel unclear, and leadership communication is creating confusion rather than alignment.”
Website redevelopment & UX
Challenge:
“Your website is embarrassing — it's outdated, hard to navigate, and fails to convert the visitors you do get into donors, supporters, or partners.”
