Using Giving is Great for Smarter Funding Decisions

Join us for an insightful and engaging webinar featuring John Spiers, Founder of the Giving is Great website (Giving is Great is provided by the EQ Foundation, an independent foundation with a mission to improve the transparency of philosophy.) Giving is Great won the “Philanthropic Initiative Award” at the Wealth Briefing Wealth for Good Awards in June 2024.

Giving is Great is an award-winning database which evaluates every registered UK charity based on the digital data available and helps charities to find new sources of funding. Their unique ratings help to identify the charities that are making the most impact but can’t afford to spend millions on marketing. The judges said: “The EQ Foundation has set up ‘Giving is Great’ to create greater transparency in the charity sector, the platform makes it easier for donors to identify and support highly effective charities. The firm showcased their mission to dedicate giving to smaller charities which receive the most impact, rather than donors simply choosing a charity with the highest name awareness.”

In this session, John will demonstrate how the platform can support your due diligence process, giving you a deeper understanding of the charities you support or plan to support.

You’ll also learn how to identify high-impact charities working in your areas of interest, including those that may not yet be on your radar.

Whether you’re a seasoned grant-maker or just refining your funding strategy, this webinar will give you practical tools to elevate your impact.
