Trusts and Foundations

Maximise the impact of your giving by supporting organisations that provide essential services to communities.

As a Crowdfunder Foundation partner, you can amplify your support by tailoring it to your organisation’s key giving initiatives. Whether you're focused on local community causes or global challenges, our expert match funding ensures your contributions go further. Work with us to support a wide range of causes or enhance the impact of those already in your portfolio.

How we enhance your giving

Create a match fund

Create your own fund to support the causes you care about. We’ll help you find projects that align with your giving goals, making the process simple and impactful. Together, we can refine and adapt your criteria to ensure your fund consistently reflects your values and priorities, driving lasting change. Matched funding offers additional benefits compared to traditional grant giving, maximising the impact for both you and the projects by encouraging wider community support and amplifying overall contributions.

Collaborative funds

Crowdfunder Foundation is launching collaborative funds to drive greater change. By collaborating, you can maximise your impact by pooling resources, leveraging expertise, and reducing admin tasks to support larger, sustainable initiatives with lasting outcomes. We're developing the Nature Recovery Fund and Social Enterprise Growth Fund, and by contributing, you can be among the first to seed these efforts, inspiring others to join and drive even greater impact.

Emergency appeals

In times of disaster or severe hardship, Crowdfunder Foundation launches appeals to generate immediate funding for causes directly working to alleviate the crisis. You can donate through the appeals we promote on Crowdfunder or during the checkout process. Every donation, no matter the size, contributes to building momentum and making a tangible difference in the Foundation’s efforts. Your support is crucial in ensuring we can continue our work to address urgent needs and provide timely assistance to those affected.
