The Difference We Make

The research seeks to: • improve impact reporting of LRCF donor grants • maximise the capability of the DIGITS database (shared by all UK Community Foundations) • facilitate communication between donors whose funds LRCF manages, VSOs and the local public sector; in order to increase engagement of private donors with local need, • encourage prospective donors to contribute • assess the cumulative impact of philanthropic donor grants within the overall funding landscape • contribute to highlighting barriers that currently exist for philanthropy in Leicester, Leicestershire and Rutland
