We need to
think differently
about overhead
From funders to board members, fundraisers to donors, we all need to rethink how we fund the impactful work that is changing the world for the better.
The 'Pay What It Takes' (PWIT) initiative is a call to action for funders, influencers and for-purpose organisations to recognise and address the full cost of delivering impactful work. Here you’ll find a suite of resources designed to help fundraisers and funders reframe the narrative around overhead costs. Whether you’re just starting or leading the charge, you’ll find the tools you need to change overhead perceptions and practices.
Resource Library
Our Resource Library is designed to help fundraisers and funders reframe the narrative around overhead costs. Whether you’re starting the conversation or taking bold steps toward full-cost funding, these resources offer actionable guidance to drive change.
