We address unseen needs. Many living amongst us struggle behind closed doors. We need to surface these unseen gaps and needs so people who struggle can get to where they need to be. It is also about the unseen struggles that grantee partners (charities, non-profits, social impact organisations, ground up groups) go through, many exist to meet gaps but also exist in isolation. We go beyond the grant. We have built a robust framework to ensure that we invest in the best people and proposals in the charity sector. So that our funds, charities and community groups can better work together to maximise collective social impact over time. We move quickly and accurately. We track commitment and utilisation rates to ensure we do not sit on donor dollars that are entrusted to us. 100% commitment rate within 12 months and 95% utilisation rate within 24 months. We optimise your donation. Is your donation really doing good? You track your investments. Do you track your giving? What returns are you getting? Is it making a difference?
