Deadline: 31 March 2020
The Peartree Development Fund is currently accepting applications to provide grants to community based organisations and small non-government organisations with a common aim: working to alleviate poverty in developing countries.
Currently, their primary areas of operation are India, Malawi and Uganda. They do not fund projects that operate within the UK.
Focus Areas
The projects they fund always aim to benefit the target community in one or more of the following ways:
- raised standards in education
- raised standards in health and sanitation
- increased self-reliance
- improved standard of living
Funding Information
Grants are generally single payments between £500 and maximum £3,000.
Eligibility Criteria
- As well as project-based grants, the Trust will consider applications for funding for both capital and running costs. They welcome applications from new organisations who have yet to secure funding from a donor. They prefer not to support charities or organisations that have an annual income over £100,000.
- They no longer accept applications from UK charities on behalf of their overseas partner.
- They do not fund:
- general appeals
- political parties/agendas
- individuals/expeditions
- promotion of religion
