Exciting news for charities, funders, and the public! Over 2024, we have six big match funding opportunities lined up to encourage more giving and support important causes. As we’ve seen over and over again, match funding is a proven method to encourage more people to give, and people to give more, and we’re delighted to be able to present a range of existing and new match funding campaigns. But that’s not all – we’re also still offering the option for charities and funders to run their own campaigns with us. Let’s continue to make an extraordinary difference to the world’s biggest challenges.
