Knowledge Sessions

GreaterGood SA’s Knowledge Sessions are a quick and easy way to get to grips with fundraising in a digital world, without leaving your office. Industry experts and GreaterGood SA’s own development gurus host interactive sessions online four times a year.

Sessions are FREE for Causes registered on Myggsa.co.za and subscribers to The Funding Site. To join a session, you will need a telephone and an internet connection. We use free, secure software called Mikogo for this. We will do our best to match Causes without internet access with organisations nearby that do.
