Equity Grant Program for Child Welfare in the US

Deadline: 7 October 2019

Nominations are now open for CSJ Awards 2020 which is an annual, high profile award ceremony that honours the best grassroot, poverty-fighting charities and social enterprises across Britain.

The Centre for Social Justice works closely with an Alliance of almost 400 grassroot charities and social enterprises as they are critical to their mission, both in their vital work supporting people out of poverty and through feeding their insights and ideas into their policy work.

The event is designed to give Award Winners unique opportunities to connect with other people passionate about furthering the cause of social justice in Britain.

Six winners will receive a £10,000 grant and be profiled in front of hundreds of leading figures from across the country.
