Who we are:
GlobalGiving UK is a small, award winning, digital charity, advocating local solutions to global problems. We believe in unleashing people's potential to make positive change happen. We aim to catalyse a global market for ideas, information and money that democratises aid and philanthropy. Our theory of change is that organisations around the world are doing innovative social impact work without the benefit of necessary resources; donors around the world seek impact. Using a technology enabled platform to efficiently connect local NGOs, donors and others, we seek to foster access, growth, learning and effectiveness at a global scale.
