Who uses ActionFunder?

Updated on July 25, 2025

ActionFunder is a platform built to connect funders with grassroots changemakers — making it easy to deliver local impact at scale. A wide range of organisations use ActionFunder to give back to communities in a meaningful, measurable way.

Funders

We work with a variety of funders across sectors who want to invest in community-led projects. This includes:

  • Businesses of all sizes looking to deliver local social value and CSR initiatives
  • Construction and development firms fulfilling Section 106 and social value obligations
  • Utilities, infrastructure and logistics companies aiming to support communities where they operate
  • Foundations and grant-makers seeking a streamlined way to distribute funding
  • Public sector organisations wanting to reach community groups quickly and effectively

These funders use ActionFunder to manage their giving, track impact, and engage with local communities — all in one place.

Non-profits and community groups

On the other side of the platform, non-profits, charities, and grassroots groups use ActionFunder to:

  • Share projects in need of funding
  • Connect with aligned funders
  • Receive funding quickly and easily
  • Share progress updates and impact

From youth organisations to food banks, community farms to environmental projects, thousands of local groups across the UK use ActionFunder to bring their ideas to life.

Why it works

ActionFunder makes funding faster, fairer, and more transparent. By connecting funders directly with local groups, we cut down on admin, speed up delivery, and make sure more funding goes where it’s needed most.
