Volunteer: Identify 20+ Funders Supporting Nonprofits & Digital Capacity (2–3 Hour Project)

The Alleviate Foundation is a nonprofit working to close the digital infrastructure gap for nonprofits and NGOs globally.

Across the Alleviate ecosystem, we’ve engaged thousands of organizations across multiple countries, and the insight is consistent: organizations closest to the world’s hardest problems often lack access to the systems and funding needed to scale their impact.

We are building a new kind of support model — combining digital tools, capacity-building, and funding access — to help these organizations become fundable, scalable, and sustainable.

To support our next phase of growth, we’re looking for a volunteer to help identify aligned funders who support nonprofit capacity-building, digital inclusion, climate resilience, and community development.

• Identify 20–25 potential funders, including:
  • Foundations
  • Corporate CSR programs

  • Nonprofit capacity-building
  • Digital inclusion
  • Climate / energy access
  • Global development
• Capture the following in a simple spreadsheet:
  • Organization name
  • Website
  • Funding focus
  • Geographic focus
  • Link to grant page (if available)
  • Optional: Key contact (if easily available)

Why This Matters
