Open calls limit you to organisations that know about your funding and have the capacity to apply. Proactive search helps you discover exceptional smaller, newer, or overlooked organisations that may never have crossed your desk - often the ones doing innovative work but lacking dedicated fundraising teams.
Looking ahead, as AI tools become standard for charities, we anticipate a future where open applications become unmanageable - every charity will apply to every relevant opportunity. Proactive, targeted discovery will become essential. With AI handling the search and initial assessment, this approach doesn't have to be resource-intensive.
