Deadline: 9-Dec-22
The London community Foundation is accepting applications for Peabody Community Fund to support services and activities developed for Peabody residents and they are delighted to manage the Peabody Community Fund.
Themes
Projects must align with one or more of the three fund themes:
- Healthy – helping people with their physical and mental wellbeing
- Wealthy – supporting people to become financially independent through employment, enterprise and education
- Happy – helping people make the most out of their lives through active citizenship, volunteering and community involvement
Funding information
Grants are available covering costs relating to your proposed project, and groups can request:
- Grants of up to £10,000 per year over 2 years (maximum request of £20,000 in total) for organisations with an annual income of £250,000 or less.
- Grants of up to £15,000 per year over 2 years (maximum request of £30,000 in total) for organisations with an annual income between £250,001 and £500,000.
Applicants have the option to either request 1 or 2-year funding – please note that there is a maximum amount that can be requested per year at each income band.
Eligibility Criteria
- The fund awards 1 or 2-year grants and is able to support charities and community organisations providing ongoing/regular activities benefitting residents of all ages. Applicants must have an annual income of £500,000 or less.
Priority will be given to:
