About Charity Entrepreneurship

Our research team spends more than 5,000 hours a yearidentifying new solutions to tackling global inequalities - from improving education quality and job opportunities for people living in poverty to reducing environmental pollution and rates of newborn mortality. We then find people like you with a drive to make the world a better place and the talent to build new organisations producing a sea change in our ability to help the world’s poorest and most vulnerable. Think startups, but solely focused on making the world a better place.

Since 2018, we’ve launchedalmost 50 new organisations through this program, providing new founders like you with more than £3 million in seed funding. These organisations are doing incredible work across the world, saving and improving thousands of lives every single year.GiveWell (effectively the Oscars of charity work) hasrecommended our charities as some of thevery best in the world - improving lives more effectively than thousands of other, better-known charities.

To take one example, theLead Exposure Elimination Project (LEEP) was founded through our program in 2021 by Lucia Coulter and Jack Rafferty - a former doctor and former consultant - with just £50,000 in funding. LEEP now operates inmore than 20 countries, partnering with governments from Malawi to Pakistan. Their work is projected to save46 million children from lead paint exposure over the coming decades.

While lead has been recognised and regulated as a dangerous substance in many wealthy countries for decades, it’s sadly far too common in many developing nations. As such, it’s one of the biggest causes oflower learning in school and reduced lifetime earnings, cementing cycles of poverty before many have even reached adolescence.

Applying for our program

Through partner projects, video lectures, and discussion groups, our program will teach you everything you need to know to launch a field-leading charity. You’ll learn while creating the building blocks for your own charity, from a review of the evidence base to drawing up a plan for your first year and an initial operating budget.
