Online platform easyfundraising has launched a new Impact Fund, offering 20 unrestricted grants of £500 to support not‑for‑profit organisations across the UK.
The fund is designed to help groups continue delivering essential services, or to enhance their activities, at a time when many organisations are facing increasing financial pressures.
Awards can be used wherever support is most needed — whether that’s purchasing equipment or resources, covering volunteer expenses, delivering events, developing small projects, or contributing to core running costs. The fund is open to a range of eligible organisations including charities, voluntary and community groups, schools, sports clubs, Community Interest Companies (CICs), social enterprises, youth groups, and faith‑based organisations.
Applications will be assessed against 3 criteria:
- community impact, focusing on how clearly applicants describe what the £500 will enable them to achieve
- clarity around beneficiaries and reach, assessing who will benefit from the grant and the scale of that impact
- the potential for lasting benefit to the organisation’s ongoing work, considering how the award could strengthen or sustain the organisation’s ongoing work or facilities
The fund is made possible through easyfundraising’s long‑standing partnerships with national retailers, who donate a percentage of online purchases to support community causes. Through this model, thousands of organisations across the UK have already benefited from extra income at no additional cost to their supporters.
The deadline for applications is Sunday 5 April 2026.
