Victoria Martin, Business Development Manager at Evouchers explores the practical approaches for voluntary organisations distributing funds and essentials to the community, using digital tools like Evouchers.
Distribution of funds and support is vital for charities, yet operationally complex. Many voluntary organisations in Wales struggle with administrative burdens, delivery speed, and ensuring a dignified beneficiary experience.
Lots of organisations are now looking for ways to reduce administrative burdens on their teams, and send funds and supplies quickly and securely to those who need them most. All while ensuring that recipients receive flexible and dignified support.
It’s a tall order!
Here at Evouchers, proud sponsors of WCVA’s gofod3 event, we are committed to supporting organisations with seamless, secure and instantaneous distribution of funds anytime and anywhere, so that you can focus on what matters most – your community.

THE REAL-LIFE IMPACT
The Lincolnshire Community Foundation
Read our case study from The Lincolnshire Community Foundation who adopted the Evouchers platform in July 2025 in order to manage the distribution of supermarket vouchers to eligible households.
Thanks to Evouchers, the foundation has now:
- Processed over 3,000 applications.
- Distributed more than £400,000 worth of funding.
- Provided targeted support to households experiencing financial hardship.
- Saved time and resources from the ability to purchase vouchers in bulk.
- Gained real-time visibility and tracking of voucher delivery and redemption.
- Streamlined internal operations and reduced time spent on administrative tasks.
‘The Foundation’s experience with both the Evouchers system and team has been flawless.’ – Aaron Bailey, The Lincolnshire Community Foundation
Action for Children
Action for Children transformed support for vulnerable families with digital innovation.
As I mentioned, I know there can be lots of challenges to distribute aid to your community – Action for Children know this too. They were travelling daily to purchase and distribute vouchers directly to families in their regions.
The time, logistics and risks involved in this process were unsustainable for the team.
The team adopted Evouchers and reaped the benefits of:
- Significant time saved from eliminating travel and physical distribution
- Increased security from removing the handling of cash
- Improved speed by sending support immediately
- Private, dignified and flexible support for families
