CHAMPIONS 4 CHANGE
Social development cannot happen without the support of people and the organisations they run – be it as donor or a community group itself. In order to honour, recognise and celebrate these champions for change the Foundation aims to run an annual award showcasing what great work is changing lives and what generosity that enables that change.
FUNDER SERVICES
For those looking to set up their own charitable funds without the hassle of setting up a charitable organisation, we can help you achieve your objectives by guiding you through the process, setting up a simple governing document, performing due diligence, transferring funds, providing follow up/support for monitoring & evaluation on grants, ensuring reports are returned in time.
