You can see every fund listed on ActionFunder, not just the ones that match your profile. From your dashboard, click Funding in the left-hand menu. The funds are split across three tabs.
The three tabs
| Tab | What’s in it |
|---|---|
| Eligible funds | Live funds that match your profile details (organisation type, location and focus areas). We email you when a new one launches. |
| Other live funds | Live funds that don’t match your profile details. Your projects are still applied to these funds if they match the fund’s criteria. |
| Past funds | Funds that are no longer open for applications. |
Private funds don’t appear in any tab. You reach them through a private link. Types of funds: Classic, Active Apply and Private
What each fund page shows
- Grants up to: the most you can ask for
- Location: the area the fund covers
- Non-profit type: the organisation types that can apply
- Categories: the focus areas the fund covers
- Deadline: when applications close
Click View to see the fund’s full details and criteria. Reading a fund page: criteria and key deadlines
Other live funds are still worth a look
A fund lands in Other live funds because your profile doesn’t match it. Your project is checked separately. If you have a project that matches the fund’s location, grant size, focus area and beneficiary type, it’s applied to that fund automatically. How matching works
To see why a fund isn’t eligible, click Find out why on it. If the reason is something you can fix, like a missing location or focus area, update your profile. Setting up your organisation profile
Use Past funds for research
Past funds show you who has funded what. Open a past fund and look at its Funded projects tab to see the kind of work that funder backed. It’s a quick way to get ideas for your own projects.
No eligible funds?
If Eligible funds says you have 0 eligible funding opportunities:
- Complete your profile. Eligible funds only show once we know your organisation type, location and focus areas.
- Check your main address is correct and your profile covers every focus area you work in.
- Look through Other live funds for anything your projects could match.
If your profile is complete, there may just be no matching fund live right now. New funds launch regularly, and we’ll email you when one matches. Getting emails about new funds
