Some Tips!
First of all; to clarify. This isn’t a grant from Street Feast. The Community Foundation are a philanthropy organisation who are running this one-off grant round called ‘Belonging 16’ for communities in 2016.
It’s ‘first-come first-served’ so we advise you to apply as soon as possible. You can check to see how many grants are still available for your county on the their website (it’s updated regularly).
Grants Available as of Thursday 25th February:
It’s an easy application form. You will need to supply an organisation’s bank account to receive the funds. If you don’t have a specific Street Feast organisation/club/group, perhaps it’s best to use a local resident’s association or another local group’s account.
