Boost small grants programme is for organisations supporting children and families in their local communities. It has been created to help groups that find the increases in basic running costs (for example utilities, salaries, transport) are making their work much more challenging. Boost will provide grants of £500-£3,000 to grassroots organisations and charities with a yearly income of up to £50,000 whose work benefits children and families.
This fund aims to ensure accessible, supportive community-led activities remain available to children and families despite the challenges the cost of living poses for charities and community groups.
Boost is delivered by Corra Foundation and is a partnership between the STV Children’s Appeal and Corra Foundation. There is no closing date. There is £300,000 available to distribute and we will make decisions on applications in the order they are sent to us. When the funding is all distributed the programme will close for this year.
