We have all benefited from the right touch of cult, love, growth and wisdom that is CSL. An annual scholarship allows us all to make a small contribution to enable the experience for someone else, and remember what it meant for us. It's a great way to stay connected to the ever-growing CSL network and make connections with those you completed the Program with and many others across the years. In short, this is a way to share the love and pay it forward!

  • Who are they?
  • Where are they?
  • What do they care about?
  • Why will they support you?
  • Why won’t they?

  • Do Good Bus Hands

Young activists and donors in particular think in terms of “projects” and causes-of-the-moment, not lifelong commitments

3 key types of risk you need to alleviate:

  • 1. Idea risk – can this work?
  • 2. Implementation risk – can this person do it?
  • 3. Fundraising risk – can they reach their goal?

Risk for donors
