“Philanthrify is changing how charities operate. Managing, monitoring, and reporting from one dashboard has made building trust not just easier, but automatic.”

Rick Ogden MBE
CEO of Boxwise

How Philanthrify works?

Philanthrify is a platform to help charities Increase Donor Trust in their work. We help you transparently show the public, major donors and grant-givers the clear benefits charities deliver. Leading to an increase in funding to charities which in turn results in greater impact.

With easy to integrate tools, we work with existing charity systems using cutting-edge technology.

What is special about Philanthrify's platform ?

We help you deal with one of the biggest the problems in the charity sector today. Trust. 52% of the UK public distrust charities today (CAF 2023).

Philanthrify has built a central hub for charities to manage, monitor and report on the impact they are having. This is done using cutting edge technology to transparently share with donors and build trust. 

Goodbox (2017) found that showing transparency can lead to up to 50% more in donations. And YouGov (2022) found that 53% of people say knowing their money is spent to do the most good is the most important factor.

How can charities use our platform ?

Working with your teams, we seamlessly integrate the Philanthrify dashboard with your existing systems to support ongoing projects and operations (like a central hub).

Charities can then use the dashboard to track budgets, monitor and manage projects in real-time. Along with showing impact achieved and share personalised data with Donors in bespoke reports. By increasing trust and transparency, charities can grow income for current and new projects and services.

What's special about the Philanthrify technology ?

The Philanthrify platform uses cutting-edge technology including AI and Blockchain to transform charity giving.

Our innovative approach delivers Transparency for donors and security for charities (eg. turning management of budgets and projects into charity-supported narratives to show donors where the money is being spent, the impact it is having and how they personally contributed towards a better tomorrow).

We use blockchain “Badges of Honour” to reward donors & give them a certificate for their contribution to a project.

What new tools and services will be added in the future?

We're already working on a new service for later this year to help charities find and apply easily and effectively for funding from major donors and government sources. (Grant Finding & Writing Tools Coming Soon...)

And we're working on a new, ground-breaking way for general donors to support their chosen charity, get personalised reports on their donations & see the impact it has, along with simple social sharing tools to encourage friends and family to donate too.
