As Black History Month draws to a close, we are looking forward to celebrating the future of Black philanthropy on 10th November with the launch of the Black Funding Network.

We're so proud that Josh Babarinde, TFN Trustee, has been honoured with an OBE in the Queen's Birthday Honours List.

Nearly a week later and our heads are still spinning from our wonderful Autumn Funder last Thursday evening*.  Our second virtual event raised a record breaking £60,000 (and counting!) for the three exceptional charities that pitched – A Partner

The Funding Network has been publishing its grant data on 360 Giving's GrantNav platform since the initiative launched in 2017, and you can now find our most recent data available here.

We are delighted to introduce the three fantastic organisations that have been chosen - from a very high-quality field of applicants - to pitch at the next TFN London event on 24th September.

As we wish the talented Sally Hoang a wonderful time on Maternity Leave, we welcome the newest member of our team - Matt Francis will take over the role of Finance and Grants Coordinator for the next seven months.

To celebrate the stunning success of our TFN London event on 18th June (seriously, we're still recovering) we've produced this short film. We hope you'll agree that it sums up the energy and excitement of the evening!

We're proud to have many social enterprises amongst our alumni, who not only provide vital support to individuals and communities but a great service to their customers too. Now more than ever, charities and social enterprises need our help so that they can work to rebuild a better society.
