Small Grants Scheme
The Foyle Fondation
The Foyle Fondation’s Small Grants Scheme awards grants of up to £10,000 to smaller charities in the UK working at a grass roots and local community level, in any field, across a wide range of activities.
Applications are welcomed from charities that have an annual turnover of less than £150,000 per annum.
During the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic the Foundation will focus on making one-year grants only to cover core costs or essential equipment, to enable ongoing service provision, homeworking, or delivery of online digital services to charities that can show financial stability.
Their priority will be to support local charities still active in their communities which are currently delivering services to the young, vulnerable, elderly, disadvantaged or the general community either directly or through online support if possible.
During this crisis, guidelines are being regularly reviewed so please read them carefully before applying.
Deadline: Continuous rolling programme.
Who Can Apply:
Our Small Grants Scheme is designed to support charities registered and operating in the United Kingdom, especially those working at grass roots and local community level, in any field, across a wide range of activities. Please note we are not able to support individuals. School PTAs and Friend groups are not eligible to apply. We are unlikely to support newly set up charities without a track record.
Online applications can be accepted from charities that have an annual turnover of less than £150,000 per annum. Larger or national charities will normally not be considered under this scheme. We take into consideration your latest complete financial year, however, if you expect your turnover to exceed £150,000 in your current financial year, you are unlikely to be supported. Please note that competition is intense; we receive many more applications than we are able to fund.
