The Hampshire & Isle of Wight Community Foundation (HIWCF) is pleased to announce the Moneybarn – Social Impact Fund Program to help marginalised young people to thrive.
This grant programme is designed to support HIWCF’s core impact themes of ‘Tackling Poverty and Inequality’ and building ‘Flourishing Communities’.
This could be a project that provides mentoring for isolated young people. It could be through funding work that gives young people a chance to participate in a group that builds their peer support and connects them with trusted adults e.g. a youth club, a support group.
