Siobhan Richards Email & Phone Number

With over 10 years of professional experience in fundraising and grant-giving, I am passionate about advancing social justice and human rights through strategic and impactful partnerships. As fundraiser at the Mukwege Foundation, an international human rights organisation working alongside survivors to end the use of sexual violence as a weapon of war, I am responsible for securing grants from foundations, governments, and other institutional donors, covering the programme and operational costs of this fast-growing not-for-profit organisation.My core competencies include institutional fundraising, grant writing, grant management, partnership development, grantee accompaniment, and training. I have successfully raised funds from diverse sources, such as the European Commission, the UN Trust Fund to End Violence Against Women and Girls, the Open Society Foundations, and the Robert Bosch Stiftung, among others. As a grant maker at the Heritage Lottery Fund, I have also designed and delivered innovative and effective training and capacity-building programmes for community and grassroots groups, enabling them to access funding crucial for their development.

Listed skills include Coaching, Teaching, Training, Dance, and 16 others.
