WELCOME TO JGA

‘Fundraising is an emotional business – always has been, always will be.’

Wise words from the late George Smith. The process of asking for money is complicated, sensitive and full of lessons learned – good and bad. But like any important and significant relationship that we seek to build, it needs investment, knowledge and commitment in order to flourish.

Help comes in all forms, that much is true. But what you will find with us, is a flexible partnership – a willingness to work in the best way possible for you, not JGA.

Honesty, transparency and collaboration are our watch words. We are fundraising specialists because we chose to be, just like you. So have a gander round our website and if you think you’ve found a kindred spirit, come and get emotional with us – we understand where you’re coming from.
