The entire premise and success of Do-it lies with its strength in partnerships.

Without charities large and small there would be no opportunities to provide. Without Volunteer Centres across the UK the opportunities would not get to the Do-it user, and without organisations such a Volunteering England, Do-it would not be able to offer opportunities from Tyneside to Totnes.

Ongoing funding partnerships are also intrinsic to the progression of Do-it.

Without vital funding from the Cabinet Office and Oracle, YouthNet would not have been able to develop the unique V-Base software that has helped create the national volunteering database. It would not have been able to provide Volunteer Centres across the UK with essential hardware to enable them to upload the volunteering opportunities into the database to reach the users of Do-it.

Cabinet Office

YouthNet receives some money from the Office for Civil Society, based at the Cabinet Office, to help with the development of Do-it.

Oracle Corporation

Oracle Corporation is one of our Founder Funders. Organisations of all sizes, in all industries and geographies, meet and exceed their business goals with the help of Oracle technological products, services solutions, and partners.

Volunteering England

Volunteering England works to support and increase the quality, quantity, impact and accessibility of volunteering throughout England.

BAA

In May 2008, The BAA Communities Trust committed £55,000 to support the London part of the Do-it tour. The Do-it tour will train volunteer involving organisations (Volunteer Centres, local and national charities) on how to successfully upload their volunteering opportunities onto the database, using the newest generation of Do-it software.

Some 240 volunteer-involving organisations from London and the South East will be trained by YouthNet on how to use the new software.
