The Fore Trust
We select the highest-potential small charities and social enterprises. We source the funding and skills they need. Then we accelerate their impact. Taking inspiration from the venture capital world, we fund purpose-led projects with the highest impact and growth potential. We let our grantees tell us what they need funding for. Rather than offering funds for specific projects or outcomes, we listen to what would be best for their growth and resilience.
