• Developing online, SMS and other technical alternatives to traditional public collections
• Developing more effective use of virtual challenge events, commission websites, online social events

• Seeking and developing opportunities to increase regular giving online
• Collaborating with the Communications Officer to manage the tracking of digital fundraising and related promotional activity
• Taking on the administration of virtual challenge events, including nurturing relationships with challenge event participants, developing better resources for participants, looking for new third-party events and working with colleagues on producing an annual BRACE challenge event
• Developing skills as a presenter of online fundraising events
• Helping fundraising and communications colleagues report quarterly on online activity to the Trustees
• Assisting with the creation of webinars and other information events and attracting a growing audience
