We have advised Leetchi, group gifting and personal fundraising website, and Advent on the acquisition of iRaiser.
Since its establishment in 2009, Leetchi has revolutionised generosity by offering a simple and secure online crowdfunding platform. Over the past 15 years, it has collected more than €2bn and built a loyal user base of 15 million active individuals. From group gifting to shared events and charitable donations, Leetchi has become a trusted platform for facilitating generosity at scale.
Leetchi and iRaiser have joined forces to create Donora, a newly formed group with the ambition to lead Europe in digital solutions for generosity. This union capitalises on the strengths of both companies: iRaiser’s industry-leading B2B SaaS solutions, trusted by Europe’s foremost NGOs, and Leetchi’s well-recognised and respected B2C brand.
With a combined history spanning 15 years, €4.5bn raised, and operations in 18 countries, Donora is uniquely positioned to tap into Europe’s €50bn charitable giving market. The group will support non-profits, foundations, healthcare organisations, and individual change-makers, offering an unparalleled suite of solutions for fostering generosity.
