Grassroots Grant Programme
Local third sector funders across the country are invited to become a local partner in delivering a ground-breaking £130million fund that will give grass roots third sector organisations access to grants of as little as £250.
As well as providing much-needed small grants for third sector organisations, the Grassroots Grants programme will also help local funders to build endowment funds to provide a continuous source of small grant funding, by matching the money that the local funder raises in the community.
The £130 million fund, which will run from 2008-2011 will be divided into two parts: an £80 million small grants fund for community organisations; and a groundbreaking £50 million endowments programme to enable local funders to generate additional donations on a matched basis and invest them in endowments, thereby building their capacity to provide long-term funding for frontline community organisations.
