How We Are Funded

Pilotlight is a registered charity (no. 1059660).

Pilotlighters (the business volunteers) pay an annual membership donation to join Pilotlight. Through grants, individual and corporate partner donations, Pilotlight is able to achieve sustainability and carry out special project work.     

The minimum donation from individual Pilotlighters is £1,575 and we work with our corporate members to create a specific programme that meets their interests.

The more members that join Pilotlight, the more Project Managers we can employ and the more charities we can help.
