    <p>My local CFA is struggling with operational funding. They have started a new fundraising event that they hope will help.</p>
    <p>What other ideas do people have for funding or things they do?</p>
    <p>Are there any groups that regularly have grants?</p>
    <p>Has anyone tried setting up regular monthly donations like many charities do? </p>
    <p><br />All ideas welcomed.</p>

    Disappointing to hear operational funding is required – given it’s operational, the first call should be to advocate well within their district/region to CFA HQ.
    As operations are the jurisdictional responsibility of the States, Commonwealth grants would not be appropriate. However, Cwth grants will support mitigation / community strengthening initiatives.
    In any fundraising material, the brigade should also mention that bequests/bequeaths are appreciated – a valuable alternative fundraising source – a longer tail on the fundraising aspect but when they occur are much appreciated.
