Karin van Maanen
Consultant

Karin's approach to successful fundraising is centred around developing a relationship with the client, in order to get a thorough knowledge of the client organisation's aims and objectives, their strengths, and their strategic development over at least two to three years. She will then work very closely with senior managers, CEOs and directors to develop project proposals for a range of funders.
