"Are you able to support capacity building for my organisation?

Benefolk partners with grantmakers to run an end to end program for their grantees. This means I wouldn't have to hunt around for providers. It's done as a single grant to them as they have DGR1 which saves us time writing applications. Benefolk can provide us with the support we need and it means we get to work with one of their specialists."

✨Risk management
✨Fundraising
✨Income diversification

Our colleagues at Minderoo Foundation recently released the Unlocking Generosity Report, developed with The Edward Alexander Foundation.

On 15 June, join Kristen Stevenson, Brad Ruting and Catherine Brooks for a national webinar exploring the findings of the report. The conversation will cover:
• Why giving conversations matter
• The opportunity ahead for philanthropy in Australia
• What needs to change to better support generosity

📅 15 June
🕐 1pm AEST

It's a very timely conversation, as Australia is about to experience one of the largest transfers of wealth in its history. But the Unlocking Generosity Report suggests up to $12 billion in charitable donations could be missed by 2030 because too few conversations about giving are taking place.

What if your next grant round could do more than fund a project? What if it strengthened the organisation receiving it?

Capacity and capability support helps charities build the systems, skills and confidence needed for long-term impact - from governance and risk, to fundraising, sustainability and income diversification.

For many small to medium NFPs, this kind of professional support is incredibly valuable, but rarely accessible. That’s why more grantmakers are investing in capability alongside other types of funding.

Benefolk makes this simple to deliver. We manage everything from design and diagnostics, to service matching through to reporting and evaluation.

The results?
📈 98% of charities reported increased confidence, AND improved capability
📈97% reported improved wellbeing

If you’re a grantmaker, partnering with us could change the trajectory of the organisations you support. And if you’re an NFP and you’d love to have this kind of support, mention it to your funders.
