EN:Able Communities CIO will open the new Community Foundation Fund for grant applications on 13 April.
The new fund has a total pot of £250k available for local charities and groups operating in communities served by our membership.
Local charities and groups can apply for grants of up to £5k to purchase equipment and works for projects that are reducing poverty and/or supporting healthy living. Trustees will also consider a small number of grants of up to £25k for projects with greater need and larger impact.
The funding pot has been gifted to the charity from specialist procurement arm EN:Procure to celebrate EN:Able Communities’ 10th anniversary.
