About Us
Raise Your Hands supports 16 exceptional small charities that improve the lives of children and young people across the UK.
We fundraise on behalf of the small charities on our platform, targeting donors that would normally be out of their reach. We do this by innovating in the fundraising space with a particular focus on corporate partnerships and pioneering events.
We work a lot with the finance sector, and we aim to produce communications that cut through and offer a fresh voice in this space.
We’re a small organisation that punches above our weight in terms of impact. We’ve donated more than £2m to date and helped improve the lives of 538,679 children and young people since 2015. We're working to reach 1m by 2030.
