Community Bonds

Community Bonds offer a different way to raise the funds of £1 million or more from your own supporter network, in order to deliver a project with a wider social impact.

Investors benefit from receiving interest as well as the social return, whilst you can raise your funds quicker than through traditional donation fundraising. Plus, your bond can attract wider ethical investors, which can give a valuable boost to your target amount and the profile of your organisation.

Regular contact with your investors on how your project is progressing and the impact it will create will engender a stronger connection with your community.
