About Sonali Sharma

My journey in fundraising began with some of the most impactful organizations in the world: Greenpeace India, WWF India, and Amnesty International. In these roles, I immersed myself in the complexities of international fundraising, learning how to mobilize support for urgent global causes. These experiences taught me the power of strategy, storytelling, and data-driven decision-making in inspiring philanthropy and driving real change.Over the past decade, I’ve worked across different parts of the fundraising ecosystem, from retail fundraising and donor engagement to global partnerships and building multi-year fundraising strategies.I currently lead partnerships and fundraising at Chimple Learning, a globally recognised edtech nonprofit working to improve foundational literacy and numeracy through play-based digital learning aligned with the goals of NIPUN Bharat Mission.In this role, I focus on building and strengthening the organisation’s funding and partnership ecosystem. My work spans developing international and Indian grant opportunities, cultivating corporate and philanthropic partnerships. I also lead efforts around awards and organisational storytelling to strengthen how Chimple presents its work and impact to partners and funders.If you\'re working on improving foundational learning and believe in the power of partnerships to scale impact, lets connect. Together, we can strengthen movements that transform lives.
