Global Impact UK

Global Impact UK, a registered charity and philanthropy advisor established in 2016 as part of the global Global Impact group (originating in 1956), equips private sector and nonprofit organizations with expert tools, services, and strategic partnerships to inspire greater giving and unleash the philanthropic sector's potential for transforming lives. Rooted in values of trust, humility, expertise, community building, transparency, accountability, and public benefit, it emphasizes rigorous governance, ethical practices, and catalytic collaboration rather than traditional direct grantmaking, acting instead as a trusted intermediary that mobilizes resources through donor-advised funds, advisory services, and networks including UN affiliates, global foundations, and corporates.

It supports broad, impact-oriented causes aligned with UN Sustainable Development Goals, spanning gun violence prevention, civil rights, social action, advocacy, humanitarian relief, international development, health, and refugee aid, benefiting vulnerable and underserved populations worldwide and in the UK. Funding facilitates project support, capacity building, emergency aid, core costs, and innovative pilots like global basic income trials, channeled via pre-selected partners of all sizes—from local charities to major international NGOs—with no geographic, income, or entity restrictions specified.

Global Impact UK does not accept unsolicited applications or run open grant programs; all engagements are invite-only through tailored partnerships, with no deadlines, rolling rounds, or public meetings—timelines are bespoke to donor initiatives. Typical amounts are not published but often involve significant six-figure sums determined by partners. Distinctively, it excludes direct public funding calls, focusing uniquely on enabling cross-sector collaboration for sustainable, high-impact philanthropy without themed restrictions or standard criteria.
