Our passion is reaching the ‘unknowns’ – the grass roots organisations across Yorkshire who lack visibility and resource to grow. There are 180,000 registered charities in the UK but 60% of all donations go to just 500 of them.
The UK charity sector does amazing things, but due to certain red tape and administrative burden, many funding mechanisms are excluding these tiny but mighty organisations.
We want businesses to use their charitable and corporate social responsibility (CSR) efforts to honour and support the entrepreneurial spirit of these groups - not just because it feels right, but because it makes financial sense.
The Fortus Foundation’s operations are being fully-funded by Fortus Ltd’s own 1% donation.
So, every penny you donate, goes straight where it’s needed most.
Commit
1%
Commit 1% of annual profits and rely on the Fortus Foundation's expertise to generate positive impact, without taking on any of the additional financial, operational or reporting burden yourself.
