About Giving More International

Giving More International is a Scottish-registered charity established by Edrington, a global spirits company, to channel employee fundraising into meaningful impact. Its mission is to empower staff as active philanthropists, fostering employee-led social change through generosity, collaboration, partnership and stewardship. The funder blends workplace culture with global corporate reach, supporting grassroots philanthropy that is visible and accessible. It acts as a flexible generalist responsive to staff passions and emerging needs, with no fixed thematic exclusions.

What Giving More International funds

The funder supports a wide range of causes driven by employee interests, including health and wellbeing, education, children and young people, vulnerable populations, disaster relief, and community development. It backs staff-organised events such as sponsored walks, marathons, and projects that benefit local and international non-profits. There are no geographic restrictions, and the funder welcomes both grassroots groups and established charities.

Who can apply

A key distinctive is its participatory, demand-driven model: funding is only available for employee-proposed initiatives. The funder does not accept unsolicited applications from external organisations, and all charities are supported via staff nomination. This approach emphasises challenge events and emergency response, inspiring broader giving within the Edrington community.
