Charities can’t access the kind of support they need, we built Matchable, an online platform that connects charities’ pro bono needs to business expertise.

The challenge

Working with our charity partners, we discovered that Pro bono is broken. Charities can’t access the kind of support they need, and businesses can’t provide their employees with the exciting pro-bono opportunities they want. As such, pro bono isn’t delivering the valuable impact to charities that it could.

The solution

Through a series of expert interviews, creative workshops and a design sprint, we built Matchable, an online platform that connects charities’ pro bono needs to business expertise. This unique platform enables both parties to connect with each other, scope projects easily and measure the impact of their work.

Matchable is operating as stand-alone business and works across all charities and business sectors.

The impact

As of Jan 2022; we have 45 corporates on-boarded and 35 non-profits / social impact startups

  • Available to 10,200 employees

  • £150k of funding raised

  • Helped WaterAid to Help 120m people in Nigeria get access to affordable toilets

  • Helped British Red Cross better prepare refugees for the UK job market & Matched them with Lawyers 

  • Helped Ashurst, to look at how to legalise cryptocurrency as a form of donation

  • Matching Natwest Markets with Equal Education to assess the impact of tutoring on the GCSE results of looked after children using data analytics

"Matchable have been absolutely brilliant in helping us navigate the tricky topic of CSR. Our employees have been so engaged since we started working with them to find matches that they really care about."
