Charities Aid Foundation Offering Unrestricted Grants Programme
Funding to build capacity and resilience for organisations promoting social equity.
The Keystone Fund is a £3 million programme which aims to support not-for-profit groups to:
- Adapt their ways of working via digital capability, staff and volunteer training and responding to operational challenges.
- Bolster their basic running capabilities via improvements to governance, strategic planning and capacity building.
Grants of £5,000 to £50,000 are on offer to UK charitable organisations addressing social injustice or working towards social equity to build a fairer society for all. These might be organisations which primarily support:
- Refugees
- People experiencing racial inequity
- People experiencing digital poverty
- People at risk of homelessness
- Deaf and disabled people
- LGBQT+ people
Approximately 50% of the funds will be focused on organisations supporting refugees in the UK.
Grants are intended to be unrestricted to enable applicants to adapt and strengthen, according to identified needs.
The deadline to apply is 23 November 2022.
