How We Raised It
Creative Partnerships Australia & Noble AmbitionThe extraordinary stories of mega gifts and multi-million-dollar campaigns from the arts leaders who delivered them.
During the past decade in Australia, we’ve seen more record-breaking multi-million-dollar gifts announced than ever before. These gifts have transformed the cultural sector for the benefit of dancers, actors, writers, researchers and audiences everywhere. We celebrate the philanthropists who gave them yet the stories of how these gifts came into being often remains hidden.
How We Raised It draws back the curtain to hear directly from the individuals who made these campaigns happen. We’ll meet the leaders of some of Australia’s greatest arts companies – The Australian Ballet, Sydney Theatre Company, the National Library of Australia and others – and hear how they galvanised Boards, fundraising teams and donors into making the impossible, possible.
Hosted by Melissa Smith - Australia’s only Global Fundraiser of the Year, with almost 20 years’ experience in philanthropy and fundraising. Commissioned by Creative Partnerships Australia, in partnership with Noble Ambition.
