What Are Projects

Projects allow your organization to highlight specific programs, initiatives, or funding needs in a clear, donor-friendly format.

While your Charity Profile explains who your organization is, projects help donors understand what you are actively working on and where support could make a difference.

What a Project Is

A project is a structured overview of a single initiative, program, or funding priority.

Projects help donors quickly understand:

  • What the work focuses on

  • Who it serves

  • Why it matters now

  • What level of support is needed

Each project is designed to be easy to review and comparable across organizations.

When to Use Projects

You may want to create a project if you:

  • Are seeking funding for a specific initiative

  • Want to highlight a time-bound or pilot program

  • Are responding to donor interest or a giving opportunity

  • Want to improve discoverability for aligned support

You can create multiple projects, each focused on a different area of work or need.

How Donors Use Projects

Donors and advisors use projects to:

  • Search for initiatives aligned with their priorities

  • Compare projects across charities

  • Support internal review and discussion

  • Identify potential matches for giving opportunities

If a project aligns with a donor’s criteria, it may be surfaced through discovery tools on WellFunded.
