Many of us know the Charity Aid Foundation (CAF) from their yearly ‘World Giving Index’ publications, which they have published since 2010. Yet, some of you may wonder, what is CAF about and do they exactly get up to? To use their own words:
We’re a charity, bank and champion for better giving, and for over 90 years we’ve been helping donors, companies and charities make a bigger impact. Our independence, expertise and reach mean we’re uniquely placed to do this.
Okay, so last year they issued the CAF Venturesome Impact Report 2018. The report gives insight into their achievements. Short but sweet? They made 583 social investments, supporting 457 social organisations, 48m GBP in committed capital funded by 130 generous funders.
