Frequently Asked Questions

What exactly is a Community Champion?

A Community Champion is an individual who commits to supporting Pathways to Progress through advocacy, fundraising, or skills-based volunteering. As we're just starting, our founding Champions will play a crucial role in establishing our programmes and credibility.

I'm not wealthy - can I still be a Champion?

Absolutely! While financial support is valuable, we equally need Champions who can advocate for our cause, introduce us to potential partners, or donate their professional skills. Time and influence can be just as valuable as financial contributions.

How will you use my contribution?

As a new organisation, your support will directly fund our initial programme development and outreach. We're committed to transparency and will provide regular reports on how resources are allocated. Based on similar organisations, we aim to keep administrative costs below 15%.

What if I need to step back later?

We understand that circumstances change. You can adjust your commitment level or pause your involvement at any time with no penalty. We value any support you can provide, whether short-term or long-term.

How do I know this will be effective?

Our programmes are based on evidence-based models with proven success in similar communities. We've developed a robust Theory of Change and will implement rigorous impact measurement from day one. As a founding Champion, you'll receive transparent reporting on all outcomes.
