United Way-style matchmaking service to launch in London - Civil Society - Fundraising - News - providing news and in-depth coverage of charities, voluntary organisations and not-for-profits: London Voluntary Service Council plans to use the money it won from the Transforming Local Infrastructure Fund to set up a United Way-style model of matchmaking businesses with civil society organisations to boost their capacity.

United Way is a US charity that channels requests for help from voluntary sector organisations to businesses, and generates investment from donors and large businesses in civil society organisations. Two representatives from the charity recently spent time at LVSC helping it to prepare its bid to the Fund.
