Project
Charities can’t access the kind of support they need, we built Matchable, an online platform that connects charities’ pro bono needs to business expertise.
The challenge
Working with our charity partners, we discovered that Pro bono is broken. Charities can’t access the kind of support they need, and businesses can’t provide their employees with the exciting pro-bono opportunities they want. As such, pro bono isn’t delivering the valuable impact to charities that it could.
The solution
Through a series of expert interviews, creative workshops and a design sprint, we built Matchable, an online platform that connects charities’ pro bono needs to business expertise. This unique platform enables both parties to connect with each other, scope projects easily and measure the impact of their work.
Matchable is operating as stand-alone business and works across all charities and business sectors

Client feedback
"Matchable is filling a major gap by firstly helping not-for-profits develop an innovation mindset to identify strategic issues and future-proof themselves, and secondly connecting them with corporates who can use their specialist skills to solve the identified challenge."
