About CAF Bank

We know what charities need from their money. Because we’re owned by a charity ourselves.

Managing your money. Understanding your needs.


We’re CAF Bank, and we’re all about banking with purpose.

That means we’re here for our 14,000-strong community, supporting everyone from micro charities to the UK’s best-known charitable and social purpose organisations.

Fully owned by a charity ourselves, we believe in the power of good – and in treating your goals like they’re our own.

Our clients' stories

Owned by a charity

We are fully owned by the Charities Aid Foundation (CAF), which connects charities worldwide with donors – and ultimately, funds. At CAF Bank, we help charities manage their money. 

Formed by a leading charity working at the centre of the giving world, we believe in banking with purpose. Together, we collaborate with sector bodies to raise awareness among policymakers of the challenges charities face – and to advocate for policies that support charitable organisations. 

CAF Bank customers also benefit from CAF’s experience, influence and global reach. This includes CAF’s charity resource hub: a wealth of tools, guidance and inspiration to help your organisation.
