Causebase helps your funders do more for you

Causebase is where funders, advisers and families find organisations to back. Every registered charity has a page, built from your public information and your funders’ notes. Nothing is scored, Causebase is not a rating house, and there is no fee for not-for-profits.

Funders should do the research, not make you apply for it

Applications, acquittals, a bespoke report for each funder: too much of your year goes to asking. The way out is funders who do their research once, say what they found, and bring other funders with them. Causebase is built for your funders, not for you, so there is nothing for you to run.

Your funders are your best advocates, and their reach stops at their networks

A funder who backs you already tells other funders why, in conversations you never see. Causebase is where that reaches funders they have never met: in another state, another network, another giving structure.

What funders see on your page

  • The public record: your ACNC registration and Annual Information Statements, dated as lodged.

  • A profile built from what you have published: your website, annual reports, media. Every source linked. The description is machine-written from what the organisation has published, labelled as such, and rebuilt when the organisation publishes something new.

  • Notes from funders who back you, under their own names: why they back you, what they looked at, when.

  • No score, no ranking, no paid placement, no fee. Profiles sit behind a login for verified givers; if you want to know what is on yours, ask us.

Built so your funders can bring other funders to you

Publish why they back you

A note under their name that other funders read when they look at your cause.

Bring others with them

Funders who read a note see your page, your record and who else backs you.

Soon, pool around your need

Coming 2027

A funder opens a syndicate around one funding need of yours; others join, deal by deal.
