The Matthew Good Foundation’s Grants for Good programme offers vital financial support to small UK-based charities and community groups with an annual income under £50,000.
Each year, £60,000 is distributed through quarterly funding rounds, with £15,000 allocated per round among five shortlisted projects. Grant amounts range from £2,000 to £5,000, determined by an internal employee vote at the John Good Group.
The application process is designed to be straightforward, accommodating the needs of grassroots organizations. Applicants are required to submit a brief application, provide a reference, and participate in an informal video call to discuss their project. This approach aims to reduce barriers to funding for smaller entities.
The programme is open to a diverse array of organizations, including community-based groups, charities, voluntary organizations, and social enterprises. These funds can be utilized flexibly, covering core operational costs or specific project expenses, depending on the organization’s needs.
Eligible applicants include registered charities, community-based organizations, voluntary organizations, and social enterprises. Organizations must be able to demonstrate that their activities benefit local communities, and they should have a clear plan for how the grant funding will be used to support their projects or core operations. Applicants should also provide a reference and be willing to participate in an informal video call to discuss their project as part of the selection process.
