06 Laura Ferretti | Founder of Impact Philanthropy More than Money

This interview is jam packed with detailed analysis of fundraising in the for purpose sector. Laura generously shares a wealth of trends, data and insights about fundraising and the for-profit sector. 

One of our favourite insights is that "individuals give at the speed of trust." Historically, major gifts trust took about 40 years to develop, grow, and build, but post internet this timeline has been halved to about 20 years. 

Laura's dad was instrumental on putting her on this path as he helped her to understand that if she really wanted to change the world, that she needed to learn how to raise money. 

This interview is well worth a listen if you really want to understand what makes the for purpose sector tick. As much like the business world, deep insights come if you can follow the money and Laura is undoubtedly one of the best guides we could have on this exploration.
