2024 Case Studies Pack
- May 2024
There are many community projects delivering innovative and valuable services in Birmingham, often working with hard-to-reach groups to provide high quality, community-led and innovative services. However, many grassroots organisations fail to access funding and resources from mainstream funders – including the council itself.
To tackle this problem, we developed MatchMyProject – an online platform that matches community organisations in need of resources for the delivery of their projects and businesses working directly for Birmingham City Council or in the area. Using this tool, community organisations can post requests for support on specific projects, with businesses able to browse a curated directory of projects and make offers of support directly.
