"We
make a living by what we get, but we make a life by what we give”
Winston Churchill Grant-Making
It
is estimated that there are in excess of 9,000 charitable grant-makers in the
UK varying from major institutions to small, family-run trusts. To an ever-greater
extent, they are expected to operate within a framework of supervisory control.
The strategic use of IT can help them provide clear information about their policies
and achievements and meet the increasing demand from government and elsewhere
for greater accountability. For the larger trusts new legislative requirements
may present no significant administrative burden. For the smaller ones they can
put considerable strain on day-to-day operations. For these trusts, Issimo can
bring the experience of over seventy grant-making organisations and provide advice
and practical suggestions about how to streamline and improve operations.
