Deadline: 30 June 2018
The H.B. Allen Charitable Trust is seeking applications for its grant program to provide initial funding for newly established organisations.
In 2015, the Trustees made a provisional plan to wind up the Trust by the end of 2020. They now expect to distribute all of their funds by the end of 2018. By that time, their income grants will have exceeded £25 million and a distribution of the Trust’s capital is expected to bring the total grants to over £60 million. This is such a substantial sum that the Trustees thought it right to make a landmark capital grant as a lasting memorial to the Settlor’s philanthropy.
Following their £25 million capital grant, the Trust’s 2017 income will be substantially lower than in previous years. Some grants have already been made out of the 2017 income. So the grants to be made out of that income in the early part of 2017 will be smaller in number.
The Trustees do not make grants to, or enter into sponsorship arrangements with, individuals or to organisations that are not UK registered charities.
