NRC External Relations (Exrel) is a global team responsible for engaging with private individuals and organisation to build awareness of NRCs work and raise resources for NRC, unearmarked funds, grants, and pro bono. To do this Exrel has four focus areas; Public Engagement who give a global public voice to NRC and the people we serve; Fundraising who grow our income of unearmarked funding from private individuals; Donor Management who ensure our income from regular donors; Corporate who get grants and pro bono resources from private organisations and private philanthropist and the capital market. In addition, there is a Governance function that crosses all these functions focused on legal, financial, human resource and other ‘fit for purpose’ activities.

Private organisations – private foundations, corporations, impact investors, capital market and private philanthropist– represent an alternative and growing source of resources for humanitarian assistance. They are especially suitable for enabling change and innovation through their expertise, networks, and flexible funding approaches which are not readily available from institutional donors. NRC has a goal to grow partnerships and diversify funding sources (Strategic Enabler 3) which includes greater partnership with private organisations both for grants, pro bono support and joint projects such as private public partnerships built with blended finance, impact investment and joint ventures.
