Overview

Are you looking for an opportunity to make a huge difference in the world, improving the lives of millions?

Launch your own charity through our fully-funded program and lead your own project dedicated to solving some of the biggest problems in the world.Too many charity jobs focus on work that doesn’t seem to make a real difference to people’s lives, focusing more on fundraising and impressive communication than on truly solving big problems as efficiently as possible.Our two-month Charity Entrepreneurship Incubation Program gives you the training, funding, and mentorship you need to launch your own organisation dedicated to tackling global inequalities at scale.Applications are open until October 5th – for more information, visit our website or attend one of our online information sessions.About Charity Entrepreneurship

Great charity work is one of the most direct and effective ways we can improve the world. Yet recent research showed something incredible: the best charities are

more than 100 times more effective than average ones .At Charity Entrepreneurship, we’re on a mission to launch more of these very best charities that make a transformative difference in the world. We have a proven model, with

more than 50 organisations launched , collectively reaching over 75 million people and improving the lives of more than 1 billion animals through their work. What we need is great founders to start more of these field-leading non-profits.Our research team spends

more than 5,000 hours

a year identifying

new solutions tackling some of the biggest problems in the world

– from improving education quality and job opportunities for people living in poverty to reducing environmental pollution, farmed animal welfare and newborn mortality. We then find people like you with the talent and drive to make the world a better place to build incredible new organisations. Think startup incubators, but solely focused on making the world a better place.Within a few years of launching, our charities have been recognised as some of the very best in the world and supported by many of the biggest funders and most rigorous evaluators of charitable work – from the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation to USAID, GiveWell, Founders Pledge, Mulago, Open Philanthropy, and Animal Charity Evaluators. To take one example, the Lead Exposure Elimination Project (LEEP) was founded through our program in 2021 by Lucia Coulter and Jack Rafferty – a former doctor and former consultant – with just £50,000 in funding. LEEP now operates in more than 35 countries, partnering with governments from Malawi to Pakistan. Their work is projected to save 46 million children from lead paint exposure over the coming decades.About the program

Our program was designed by experts who successfully launched their own field-leading charities from scratch. We teach you everything you need to know to do the same – from evidence reviews to intervention design to operations – through applied, cohort-based learning. By the end of the program, you’ll have matched with a co-founder and submitted a funding proposal for your very own nonprofit.Program Details
