Charities Aid Foundation is to roll some of its websites into one multi-functional
site early this year, with the aim of delivering improved content, service and security
levels.

Over the past ten years CAF has developed a number of websites to make its services
more widely available and to develop the online infrastructure for the UK voluntary
sector.

These include charitynet.org, the main corporate site cafonline.org, givenow.org,
allaboutgiving.org, cafbank.org, and ccinet.org

The new single site will feature an improved search tool allowing visitors to search
a database of 238,000 charities registered with the Charity Commission plus other
exempted organisations. It has been designed to help visitors find charities which
match their interests.

The facility will allow you to search for a charity by:

* keyword

* cause (eg education, the environment, health)

* annual income

* location

* whether it operates overseas

The results pages will include the ability to donate online to charities listed.
CAF says that it currently processes around 200,000 online charity searches, “distributing
£14m in donations every year as a result”.
