Welcome
Charities are at the heart of communities across Scotland, from protecting the nation's stunning landscape and wildlife, to alleviating poverty, promoting education, supporting the arts and encouraging sport. Localgiving is proud to have helped groups across Scotland fundraise online and access grants since our founding in 2010. Lets find out more!
"We have used Localgiving as our fundraising platform since we began in 2017. With it being a low cost and easy to use platform it’s been ideal for our project and our community, and the money raised through it has been crucial in helping us work towards our aims.”
Fourth Reserve
Glasgow Zine Library
"The arts should be accessible to all, and this grant helped make a big difference in terms of making our work more accessible to the community. A big thank you! We were able to make the new space fully wheelchair accessible, widening doorways, levelling floors, and creating an accessible bathroom. This means more people can now access our arts space, participate in creative activities, volunteer, and generally enjoy being part of the creative community in Glasgow."
Rhyze Mushrooms, Edinburgh
"We need radical and creative solutions to growing more food, more sustainably and it's exciting that our project has received recognition through this award. As a community project and worker's co-operative, everything we do at Rhyze Mushrooms is rooted in principles of collaboration and mutual aid. I'm incredibly grateful to the huge support I receive every day from my colleagues, our volunteers and my friends, without whom none of this could be possible."
“Because of your support, more people will find comfort, connection and friendship. In the coming year, we will be focused on reaching and supporting more people, and campaigning for better bereavement support right across the country. Thank you so much."
