About Duncan, Nicola and Classroom of Hope
Education is the most powerful weapon we can use to change the world yet 263 million children don’t have access to quality education. During this truly inspiring conversation, I interview Duncan and Nicola the co-founders from Classroom of Hope, an amazing organisation that builds schools and creates educational projects in Cambodia, Bali, and Rwanda.
Nicola was born in Canada and is Classroom of Hope’s Creative Director. Nicola uses her creativity for storytelling to connect donors with their positive impact. Nicola feels blessed to have received valued education throughout her life and believes that with the right mix of passion and imagination we can create a world where all children have access to quality education.
Duncan is an avid seeker of adventure. Born and raised in South Africa, Duncan believes that ‘education is the most powerful weapon we can use to change the world’. Duncan is Classroom of Hope’s inspirational leader and husband to Nicola.
In this episode we discuss:
* How Classroom of Hope approached their fundraising challenges
* The ‘Wise Owl’ model that is making a huge difference to core funding
* Impact reporting to donors – why and how to do it
* Why being open and transparent is a full time job and why it matters
* Run your charity like a business with great intentions
* Why charities are For Purpose and not ‘not for profit’
* How to run a ‘lean’ organisation to achieve your goals
* Why doing your research on the best organisations helps shape your own
* Stories inspire others
* How to create a lean staffing structure with great results
* Remember your Why
