Deadline: 20-Aug-21
ASDA Foundation is seeking applications for its Bringing Communities Back Together Grant Program to support local grassroots organizations to transform communities and improve the lives of people living within the Asda community.
The Asda Foundation aims to transform communities and improve lives.
Funding Information
- The three options available within this grant stream are detailed below:
- Celebration Event: ‘Being together’ should be the focus of this option. It is designed for groups and communities who have been separated by the virus, enabling them to reconvene and celebrate. This celebration could be cultural or religious, it could also just be an opportunity for people to reconnect.
- Getting Activities Back on Track: Getting groups back together to enjoy their various interests is the aim of this option. This could include the Elderly, Sporting Groups, Arts & Crafts aficionados, or those with other hobbies and pastimes.
- Combination (Of Both): This would enable groups and communities to celebrate being back together, whilst also replacing some tools or equipment.
- Groups may apply for one grant only to the maximum value of £1,000 and minimum of £250 per grant.
