Hosted by NVPC's Groundup Central team and Pro Bono SG, join us for the upcoming ConneXion workshop If you are grappling with fundraising, unsure of whether it’s permitted, want to learn about how to ensure you’re abiding by the guidelines, and the “do’s and don’ts” as a Groundup.

In this session hosted by Centre for Non-Profit Leadership and Groundup Central, hear from and be inspired by our panel speakers as they share about having the awareness and desire to establish high performance teams; and how to focus on a culture built on “Emotional Trust”.

From the Ground Up is an event that gathers groundup stakeholders and change seekers in one place, facilitating collaboration, sharing and networking. Hear from groundup founders, volunteers and day-to-day folks, and learn about fellow self-initiated volunteer projects!

Have you been leading your ground-up initiative for some time now and are thinking of how you can hand over the baton to a next generation of leaders? Join us and our 4 speakers as they share their lived experiences on the leadership succession journey!

Thinking of registering your groundup but not sure if you should take the step forward? We've got you covered! Join us as leaders who have been there and done that, share their knowledge and unique experiences with legalities.

In our first virtual session (thanks COVID-19), we invited The Hidden Good to share what it takes to tell a good story, their 5C story mountain framework, and some tips on social media usage! 

When's the right time to register your groundup and what entity types should you consider? That's what we set out to discover in this session hosted in collaboration with Law Society Pro Bono Services! 

Personal Data Protection Act (PDPA) - that big acronym that affects everyone, groundups included. In this session, we explored the depths of PDPA and what to look out for when collecting data, be it from beneficiaries, event participants, volunteers and more! 

Can you as a groundup sign a contract with another party? What are the extent of your legal responsibilities? In our first session together with Law Society Pro Bono Services, we discussed the different scenarios in which legal knowledge comes into play. 

Loosening it up as we invited the groundups and their volunteers to celebrate CNY together with us! This was a lesson in itself to remind ourselves to always show appreciation to our volunteers, and build lasting relationships with them. 

Often wonder how to form partnerships with others when you're just a small initiative? We heard from fellow groundup founders on how they managed to collaborate with different agencies, and then had a breakout session to piece together a journey map! 

Starting a groundup doesn't mean you have to run it forever! In this session, we heard from founders on how they successfully grew their initiative and developed the next generation of leaders! 

Volunteers - the amazing group of people that groundups are nothing without. We hung out with experienced volunteer management practitioners and picked up tips on how to keep volunteers engaged and motivated! 

What does a funder look out for in a grant application? How can you create a compelling crowdfunding campaign? These were some questions that we learnt insight to during this session! (And we subsequently learnt how to take better group photos too 😂) 

Session one! We invited groundups to join us for the very first time to find out more about the advocacy journey of fellow groundups, and also some handy tips and tricks on how to better engage the media from a professional PR firm.
