This week, a member of the Board of SHEAD CENTRE – INC, Oladipo Owoyomi had the honor of meeting with the Vice President of Philanthropy at the Central Indiana Community Foundation (CICF) to explore the future of sustainable change through strategic partnerships and purpose-driven fundraising.

It was a heartwarming conversation that offered invaluable insights into building trust-based relationships with donors, aligning mission with measurable outcomes, and cultivating a giving culture that goes beyond transactions to transform communities.

“Fundraising is not just about asking—it’s about aligning with shared values and telling a story that moves people to act.” —Advice that will shape our next steps. A big thank you to the VP – J.T., for a time well spent.
