Why can't I fundraise for any charity of my choice?

Because we’re building for scale and impact, not one-off personalisation. Letting everyone choose any charity fragments effort, creates thousands of due-diligence and compliance checks, slows payouts, and dilutes results. A tight, adviser-curated portfolio lets funds raised fuel the most effective programmes within each cause, keeps standards consistent across 100+ races, and gives athletes a simple, trusted story to share. Think “index fund for impact” rather than everyone stock-picking: fewer, higher-confidence picks, more total good. If you want to support a specific local charity as well, do that alongside Race for Impact; inside RFI we keep the bar high and the portfolio focused so your effort goes furthest.
