Our live crowdfunding events, held throughout the year, bring people together to hear directly from small charities and give collectively.

Our live crowdfunding events, held throughout the year, bring people together to hear directly from small charities and give collectively.

At each event, three charities share their work through short, timed pitches and Q&A, alongside networking breaks and a lively pledging session - with the chance to see double or even triple the value of your donation!

Most can also be joined over Zoom, with the opportunity to pledge remotely. The evening ends with a shared celebration of what’s been achieved together and the impact it will have.

Around 12 months later, donors receive a short impact report from each charity, showing the difference their support has made and how their work has evolved since pitching.

Together, these events bring new audiences into collective giving and help direct funding towards issues and communities on the margins, often at risk of systemic exclusion.
