Let’s accelerate meaningful change!

Our mission is clear: to accelerate meaningful change through effective communication. We work through four core activities: capacity building, storytelling, services and grant support for NGOs. 

We believe in storytelling that inspires action, builds trust and promotes constructive narratives. 

CF strengthens organisations by building the skills and confidence needed to communicate effectively. 

Why a Communication Foundation?

Many NGOs and UN organisations operate with limited budgets and few staff trained in professional communication. Added to this, shifting politics and growing conservatism create new challenges for their work. To remain resilient and amplify their impact, organisations must strengthen their identity and invest in communication. 

When approached strategically, communication can shift from being a perceived obligation to a powerful opportunity. With the right focus, even limited budgets and capacity can be maximised to create and deliver clear, effective strategies unlocking advocacy, fundraising, and public trust, and ultimately driving meaningful, lasting change where it is most needed.

Storytelling Review – Master your mission’s story

Your story defines how people understand your organisation, its values and its impact. A Storytelling Review helps clarify and strengthen your narrative so it consistently reflects who you are, what you stand for and why your work matters.

CF’s Storytelling Review is a structured review of how your organisation communicates its story across channels and formats. We assess narrative structure, key messages, tone of voice, audience focus and coherence to understand whether your storytelling supports your mission and strategic positioning.

How it helps you

Dry data often fails to inspire action. This review helps you to find the "heart" of your work and communicate it in a way that sticks.

• Identification of missed opportunities for emotional engagement in your current content;
• Recommendations for moving from "organisational" talk to "human" stories;
• Advice on ethical storytelling that empowers beneficiaries rather than just portraying need;
• Guidance on structuring narratives for different platforms (web, social, reports).

What We Do

• A clear assessment of narrative strengths and gaps;
• Identification of inconsistencies and overlaps;
• Guidance on narrative frameworks and messaging;
• Provide actionable recommendations to master your story.

Why it matters

NGOs operate in complex and competitive environments, where clarity and credibility are essential. Strong storytelling:

• Builds trust and emotional connection with stakeholders;
• Clarifies your organisation’s identity and purpose;
• Strengthens recognition across programmes and campaigns;
• Supports consistent communication across teams and platforms.

Over time, stories can get fragmented or can lose their meaning. 

Different projects may tell different versions of your mission, diluting impact. 

A Storytelling Review restores focus and alignment within your communication.

Accelerating the Development of Combined CGM–Pump Devices

A combined continuous glucose monitor (CGM) and insulin pump device represents an innovative approach to simplifying diabetes management by integrating two essential technologies into a single device. This approach has the potential to improve quality of life for people with type 1 diabetes (T1D) by reducing the burden associated with wearing and managing multiple devices.

Despite this promise, the development of combined CGM–pump devices presents technical and commercialization challenges. These include the need for further advances in device compatibility and lifespan, system reliability, and scalable manufacturing, while maintaining affordability and broadaccessibility. In addition, a potential insulin dilution effect may require adjustment of the CGM algorithm.

Breakthrough T1D invites applications for research and development projects that address key technical, clinical, and translational challenges related to combined CGM–pump devices, with the goal of accelerating their development and improving outcomes for people living with T1D.

In response to this announcement, applications may request up to a total of $900,000 USD for up to three years.

Investigating the Benefit of Early Treatment with Ritlecitinib in Alopecia Areata: A Real-World Evidence Approach

Alopecia Areata (AA) is a chronic, immune-mediated condition causing nonscarring hair loss that affects about 2% of the global population and can lead to substantial psychosocial burden if disease is severe and untreated. The treatment landscape has recently evolved with the approval of ritlecitinib, a systemic therapy for severe AA in adults and adolescents aged 12 years and older, based on efficacy demonstrated in the ALLEGRO phase 2b/3 program.

Despite this advance, important questions remain regarding the optimal timing of therapy initiation. Emerging post-hoc analyses from the ALLEGRO program indicate that patients with shorter disease duration and lower baseline severity achieve higher response rates, suggesting that earlier intervention with ritlecitinib may lead to improved outcomes.

Geographic Scope

United States 

Funding Range and Project Length

Individual projects requesting up to $100,000 USD will be considered.

Maximum project length is 24 months.
