Funding with Trust aims to change donor views about locally-led African organisations, influence donor giving towards them and build more trust and respect. It was birthed out of a recognition that locally-led organisations suffer from a lack of international visibility and when they do get visibility, it has mostly been in a negative light, making it hard for funders to trust them. This makes it increasingly difficult for them to access donors and funding opportunities.
