The Sisters of Charity Foundation is inviting applications for the Community Grants to help groups who make a huge difference to those in need, but struggle to find funding through other avenues.
They may be ineligible for government assistance, or be too small or lacking the right market appeal to attract the attention of larger organizations, but their causes are no less worthy and their needs are no less real.
If your organisation provides compassion, hope and practical assistance to those in need, then you may be eligible for financial support from the Sisters of Charity Foundation.
