Localgiving.com is a website for local charities and community groups to raise money, awareness and support. Localgiving.com allows supporters and donors to search for and find small charities and voluntary organisations in their community.
Every charity listed on Localgiving.com has been independently vetted by their local Community Foundation, in a process approved by the Charity Commission. Unlike other online giving websites that only list charities large enough to be registered with the Charity Commission, Localgiving.com includes small community organisations vetted by their local Community Foundation.
Because all donations are processed through local community foundations, Localgiving.com automatically processes Gift Aid for charities and vetted voluntary organisations.
Localgiving.com was founded in 2008 by Marcelle Speller and is equally owned CFN and the Ardbrack Foundation; both are registered charities.
