Your dashboard is the first thing you see when you sign in. It shows your profile, the funds you’re eligible for, your projects and your volunteering, all in one place.

The profile card shows your profile completion percentage. Click Complete profile to see what’s missing, or Edit profile to make changes. The more complete your profile, the better your matches. Setting up your organisation profile
Eligible funding opportunities
Live funds that match your profile appear here. Each one has a label:
| Label | What it means |
|---|---|
| Open | The fund is live. If your project meets its criteria, it’ll be submitted automatically. |
| Active apply | The fund is live, but projects aren’t submitted automatically. Visit the fund page and click Apply now. |
| Applied | You’ve got a project submitted to this fund. |
| Closed | The fund is no longer accepting projects. |
You’ll also see the date each fund closes. To browse everything that’s live, click Explore all funds, or click Funding in the left-hand menu.
No funds showing? Complete your profile first. If it’s already complete, there may not be a matching fund live right now. New funds launch regularly and we’ll email you when one matches. Types of funds: Classic, Active Apply and Private
My project applications
This is where you create and manage your projects. Each project shows a status:
| Status | What it means |
|---|---|
| Draft | You’ve started the project but haven’t published it, or it was moved back to draft after 12 months without an update. Drafts aren’t submitted to any funds. Why has my project been moved back to draft? |
| Live | Published and being matched with funds. You’ll see how many funds it’s been submitted to. |
| Funding offered | A funder wants to fund your project. Review and respond within 14 days, or the offer expires. |
| Funding accepted | You’ve accepted the offer. Complete any outstanding due diligence so we can pay you. |
| Funded | The money has been paid. Post updates as you deliver. |
| Complete | You’ve finished the project. You’ll be sent an impact survey to share what you achieved. |
Funded projects show how many updates you’ve posted, for example Post updates 1/2. Posting a project update
