Charity Excellence are holding a series of free funding webinars (details below), including our upgraded Help Finder functionality for finding company donations and a new company donations AI tool, and a new AI webinar. 

We’ve updated our guides on how to use Help Finder to find raffle prizes and company donations, and created a new guide to corporate fundraising for small charities.  

We’ve also updated our Secret Funding List for Smalls.  Niche funders that national can’t apply to and many don’t know about – a lucky dip of 40+ funders from a Crematorium Recycling Community Fund to a local bus company community fund. 

If you don’t win in our funder luck dip, use the Funding Finder grants directory Small Charities and Community Groups search and you will.  I’ve been building it up and it now has 750+ funders.

Everything we provide is free.  I’ve attached our 2 AI funding tools, plus our AI bid writer template and our interactive infographic.
