Persimmon Community Champions

Persimmon, the UK’s leading house builder, launched their £750,000 community fund in 2015 to support local groups and charities across England, Scotland and Wales.

The Persimmon Community Champions is a national programme where charities and local groups and organisations can apply for funding up to the value of £1,000 to match money they have already raised themselves.

Each Persimmon business, as well as the Head office in York, gives away two grants of up to £1,000 each to support local community initiatives.

The total funding pot each year is £750,000 with 60 donations of up to £1,000 given every month.
