There are hundreds of Foundations and donor agencies supporting the NGOs efforts towards different issues for an equitable society. Applying to trusts and foundations is largely about demonstrating how your particular project can help them achieve their purpose. In any process of fundraising, it is important to understand that not every donor will fund your cause. There can be thousands of donor agencies but only a few them would really be interested in listening to your project idea. Only right information can help you identify such donors and raise funds from them.
In this document, we have analyzed some major donors from the UK. As an estimate by European Foundation Center, there are about 7,500 grant-making trusts and foundations in the UK, giving a total of approx ₤2 billion in grants each year to charities.
We have generated a ‘long list’ of UK grant makers supporting different projects around the world. These foundations support projects:
- Empowering women
- Education
- Livelihood
- Civil Society Development
- Health
- Environment and Conservation
- Democracy & Human rights
Please read these Top 25 UK Foundations thoroughly by clicking Next and apply to the relevant one to secure funding for your organization/group.
