Question 4 of 9Drafted
What difference will your project make?

Over 12 months, 120 young people aged 14 to 19 will complete weekly one-to-one mentoring. Last year 78% of our mentees reported improved confidence, and 64% moved into training or work within six months. This grant funds two more mentors, so we can take referrals from three more schools.

Questions you might have

Who is Funder intelligence for?

Any non-profit that wants to know which funders to approach, what to ask for and how its fundraising compares. Write your own bids with AI, or add a bid writer when you need one.

What’s free and what’s paid?

The funding database and your profile are free. Funder intelligence adds AI grant matching, funder profiles, prospecting, benchmarking, need evidence for your bids, shortlists, alerts and AI grant writing.

Where does the data come from?

We join up 360Giving grant data, the published accounts of funders and charities, Charity Commission and Companies House records, and government statistics. That’s more than 150,000 sets of accounts, covering five years of giving. Our team checks open grants against each funder’s own website.

Do we have to use the AI bid writer?

No. Plenty of teams use Funder intelligence purely for research and prospecting. AI grant writing is there when you want it.

Can your team write bids for us?

Yes. Book one bid at a time from £500, or have a bid writer work through your whole pipeline from £1,250 a month.
