PART 3: Capital in Action
Our Financial Vehicles in Action
Looks at how ActionFunder connects businesses and non-profits to drive community engagement and achieve ESG goals efficiently.

Included because ActionFunder is a practical example of a platform that enables businesses to deploy capital into community projects and measure social value, directly illustrating the chapter’s focus on “Our Financial Vehicles in Action.” A review of the site shows it markets grant-management and social-value tools, publishes case studies and live project updates, and documents businesses funding local charities — all of which provide concrete, real-world mechanisms for a “Grant through a Platform” example in Part 3. The row notes that the Mills made a grant via ActionFunder to a community centre for financial-education workshops (a narrative example to be cited in the chapter); this specific attribution does not appear on the public site but the platform’s features and case studies corroborate its suitability as the mechanism for that example.
