Next round of Easyfundraising’s £1,000 Impact Fund grants opens
Howard Lake | 24 September 2026 | News
Easyfundraising is opening the second round of its Impact Fund, offering UK charities and good causes the opportunity to receive a £1,000 grant.
The cashback fundraising platform, which has helped UK charities and good causes raise more than £72 million in additional funding, is bringing back the easyfundraising Impact Fund following its first round earlier this year. This time, easyfundraising is increasing the value of each individual grant to £1,000.
As it launched the funding easyfundraising noted the findings of the Charities Aid Foundation’s UK Giving Report 2026 which reported that in 2025 the British public donated £1.4 billion less than the previous year, a fall of almost 10%. This is one of the reasons that it offers the Impact Fund grants as unrestricted grants, “to provide immediate, practical support, allowing successful applicants to spend the money wherever it will make the biggest difference to their cause”.

Easyfundraising CEO James Moir commented:
“For this second round, we have doubled the value of each individual grant to £1,000. For a small charity, school, sports club or community group, £1,000 can make a meaningful difference, whether that’s helping to pay essential bills, replace equipment, run activities or simply keep vital services going.
“The Impact Fund sits alongside the free donations that supporters can already raise for good causes when they shop through easyfundraising. It’s another way for us to put funding directly into the hands of the organisations that need it.”
The easyfundraising Impact Fund is open to eligible UK-based good causes, including registered charities, not-for-profit organisations, sports teams and clubs, schools and education settings, after-school and youth groups, social enterprises and CICs, and churches and religious organisations.
Good causes do not need to be registered with easyfundraising to apply.
The second round of the easyfundraising Impact Fund opens on 24th September and applications close on 8th November 2026.
