Helping young people make sense of the world of charities

We are a small, grant-giving organisation providing money and professional support to make a positive and sustainable impact.

We aim to enhance understanding of the role of charities, social enterprises and voluntary sector organisations through the projects and individuals we support.

We collaborate and focus our support on schools, colleges and universities.

We share our learning from our current work and from our history of supporting career transitions into the social sector.

Grants for university fees

We support students who experience economic and related barriers to study for a charity sector Masters degree

Social Action Support for Schools

We work with schools to co-create and support local projects that have a positive social impact. These student-led projects benefit from a modest grant and expert advice from volunteers from the social and business sectors.

Shared Learning

We share our learning to improve understanding of the social sector and to help newcomers to the sector with practical advice that will help them make sense of what they are experiencing.

We have learning to share on the shape and dynamics of the UK social sector, on career transitions into the social sector and how to get started on a new career in the social sector.

Support for Funders

We work with funders that want to enhance their grants with professional support. We call this Grant+ support.

 As a not-for-profit organisation we rely on financial support to fund our grants.
