Know exactly where your company's charitable giving goes
We independently rate every UK charity using official Charity Commission data. Before your company donates, we'll tell you if the charity is financially sound, well-governed, and free of red flags.
The problem with corporate charity giving
Most companies donate based on reputation alone — without checking the data.
How do you know a charity is legitimate?
Before your company donates thousands of pounds, you need to know the charity is financially sound, well-governed, and filing properly with the regulator.
Manually checking the Charity Commission takes hours
The official register is hard to navigate. Most HR and CSR managers don't have time to dig through annual returns and event histories for every charity they consider.
The reputational risk is real
One donation to a charity that later gets investigated by the Charity Commission can create serious PR problems for your business.
