The Ireland Fund now accepting applications for social project funding

1/21/2014

0 Comments

 
The Ireland Funds are about to open their Grants Programmes for 2014. This is another fantastic opportunity for local organisations to receive funding for community-based projects. 

The first programme is a Small Grant Round to enable as many organisations as possible to fund new and innovative responses to social need. They seek applications for projects that fit within their four key programme areas: 
  • Arts & Culture
  • Community Development
  • Education 
  • Peace & Reconciliation.

Proposed activities should also fit within one of their Promising Ireland Campaign Priority Areas, which include
  • Investing in Ireland's Communities
  • Supporting a Shared Future for Northern Ireland
  • Providing Access to Education
  • Promoting Culture and Heritage
  • Assisting Disadvantaged Youth
  • Assisting the Elderly "Forgotten Irish"
  • Promoting Philanthropy in Ireland


The maximum amount organisations may request is €10,000. The average award will be around €5,000 and there is no minimum award. Applicants can apply online during the period in which the Grant Round is open, which will be from 1st February until the deadline on 28th February 2014  17.00GMT. 

A larger fund for Flagship Investments will be available for application in April 2014 to support exceptional non-profit organisations to become effective, impactful leaders in their fields.

All the information on both funding programmes is available here: https://www.theirelandfunds.org/grant-round
