The case for the CAN model
Your funding goes further when it doesn't have to do everything alone.
Most social impact funding gets absorbed by the overhead of small organisations trying to survive — grant writing, compliance administration, reporting, procurement. The CAN handles that centrally, so your investment reaches frontline delivery faster and with less loss.
As an asset-locked CIC, we're legally required to direct every penny towards our community purpose. You'll have full transparency over where your investment goes, with multi-agency impact reporting against agreed outcome frameworks.
