We were excited to support TFN Member Patricia Hamzahee and her team at the Black Funding Network to host their second live crowdfunding event in support of innovative Black-led organisations on 29th April. BFN harnesses thoughtful giving to help changemakers serving Britain's Black community. We are proud to support them as they work to increase support to Black-led grassroots organisations, particularly at a time when many are facing unprecedented demand coupled with reduced funding. 

The evening was expertly hosted by Broadcaster Henry Bonsu, and three non-profits - Make a Difference at Sandies, Alfred Fagon Award and A2i Dyslexia - presented fantastic pitches in just five minutes each. Our audience of over 100 people collectively raised more than £20,000 towards their vital work. We look forward to updating you on their impact over the coming months. 

Thank you to all who came and donated!
