Research with the uncertainty left in
The directory contains 37 detailed profiles and 581 name-only leads from supplied lists. Leads are named starting points whose identity and current grantmaking activity need checking. They are excluded from the matchmaker and search-engine indexing until researched. Charity-specific budgets, correspondence and relationship history are excluded. Imported research is labelled. Detailed profiles include source links; name-only leads may have no public source recorded.
What our labels mean
“Name-only lead” means only the supplied name is available, without a checked identity or funding guidance. Import dates record when a name was added, not when it was verified.
“Check first” means current eligibility or availability needs confirming. “Restricted access” identifies invitation or relationship requirements. “Not published” means the research did not establish a reliable grant range. It is not a claim that funding is unlimited.
How matching works
Our rules compare your main theme and geography and flag recorded grant or expenditure limits. We rank research relevance, not your probability of winning. Missing rules remain checks for you to resolve.
The launch edition
The directory, matchmaker and browser-saved CRM are free to use. There are no subscriptions, payment collection, shared accounts or automatic grant applications in this version.
Independent research
Okapenny is not affiliated with the Charity Commission or the funders listed. It does not reproduce subscription bulletins or offer a licensed third-party data feed. Always use the original funder guidance for an application.
