When you fundraise for GAIN, you help ensure that finance is not a barrier to women and non-binary individuals interested in a career in investment management.

Every penny raised goes into the GAIN Bursary.

At GAIN, we empower young women and non-binary individuals by providing them with free resources, organising events, and offering programs in the investment management industry. We ignite inspiration in them through a network of industry role models who speak at events and provide mentorship.

By fundraising for GAIN, you can make a significant difference in the lives of these individuals. All proceeds from fundraising activities will be donated to our GAIN bursary, ensuring that financial barriers do not exclude young talent from accessing our events and programmes.

Who can fundraise?

We welcome anyone to fundraise for us whether you’re an individual, a school group, a university society, or a corporate team demonstrating your commitment to bridging the gender diversity gap in the industry.  

Why fundraise rather than donate? 

Fundraising is an engaging way to actively demonstrate your support for our mission. It offers you an exciting opportunity to try something new, take on a challenge, and truly make a difference.

Use your fundraiser to ignite a sense of camaraderie, connection, or even friendly competition (!) among your friends and peers.

Each person you involve in your fundraiser, be it a friend, colleague, or neighbor, becomes a valuable part of the GAIN network. Through their involvement, we are able to inspire and empower more young women and non-binary individuals in the investment management industry.
