Grants

Community Foundation grants are for community and voluntary organisations in and around Calderdale.

Applications are welcomed from constituted community or voluntary groups. We primarily serve Calderdale but deliver several grants schemes to other districts of West Yorkshire and beyond.

Due to an overwhelming demand for support many of The Foundation’s donor funds have been used up for this financial year (ending 30th June 2010).

In additon, as you may have noticed on the 'News' page, we are re-locating to new premises during May and to facilitate this move it has been necessary to suspend some of our activities for a short time. 

The programmes and donor funds which are running unaffected, these include both Healthy Halifax and grants outside Calderdale.

If you struggle to use the new online process, email us on grants@cffc.co.uk; however, you need to be aware that it could take longer to get a decision if you do not apply online.

If you need further information, read the guidance below, or come to a monthly drop in where you will be given helpful support and advice.
