Two Magpies Fund is a London-based philanthropic funder focused on two closely linked areas: preventing violence against women and girls and giving young children the best possible start in life. It tends to support charities and not-for-profits delivering practical, on-the-ground services such as survivor support, prevention and education, family support, and early-years interventions for children growing up in poverty. A distinguishing feature is its mix of invite-only, multi-year unrestricted support for VAWG organisations and a separate competitive fund for early years and child poverty work.
Provides relatively small-to-midsize grants of about $15,000-$50,000, including multi-year unrestricted funding for invited VAWG partners and a separate competitive annual fund for early-years charities. The VAWG program is invite-only and relationship-driven, while the Best Start In Life Fund has a public deadline and supports project costs, equipment, and running expenses.

For the Best Start In Life Fund, watch the public deadline (30 June 2026) and tailor proposals to babies and children under 11 experiencing poverty, especially in London. For VAWG funding, do not expect a standard open application process; it appears to be invite-only, so relationship-building and demonstrated alignment with prevention or survivor support are key.
