What we do

We help essential charities to become extraordinary charities.

How we work

We pioneered venture philanthropy in Scotland.

We are a venture philanthropy organisation. This means we apply venture capital principles – such as long-term investment and tailored development support – to the voluntary sector. In doing this, we aim to build a Scotland without poverty and disadvantage, where everyone has the same opportunities to reach their potential and lead happy and healthy lives.

THEMATIC FUNDS

We identify and solve deep-rooted social problems.

Through our thematic funds, we bring together the right people and organisations to design rigorous and innovative solutions. We work in the communities that need it most and build strong partnerships with government and business to maximise our impact.

Specialist Volunteer Network

We connect businesses and charities to create lasting solutions.

Our network of professional volunteers lends vital expert assistance to Scotland’s charities, helping them to build capacity and overcome problems. Our strong connections with the private sector – both individuals and businesses – allows us to access a deep and varied pool of expertise.
