SmartyGrants UK is pleased to announce two new collaborations that further our commitment to strengthening grantmaking across the UK and Ireland.
We’re partnering with Philanthropy Ireland, the leading network for philanthropy in Ireland, to help enhance its communications and elevate voices driving the sector forward.
We’ve also been selected as the technology partner for Yorkshire Funders, a respected network that connects local and national funders giving in the Yorkshire region, and works to foster collaboration and learning across the region.
Both organisations share our mission to deliver practical, impactful support for grantmakers - building stronger communities through better giving. We’re proud to stand alongside them.
