Help us support Yorkshire people and communities
Many of our funds are collective funds supporting community action in specific places in the region. Because the cost of living crisis is not going away, the majority of our funds support people affected by the cost of living crisis, and poverty in general.
We have five place-based funds covering Hull, York, Harrogate, Selby and Scarborough. We also have a small grants programme eligible for people throughout the region – North & East Yorkshire, York and Hull.
By building up any fund through a number of donors, it becomes more and more valuable and goes further in helping the people and communities most in need.
You can choose to donate regularly or make a one-off contribution. For many of our place-based local funds we have match funding available, essentially doubling your donation.
Talk to Celia on 07519 485103 or email her on [email protected] directly about your options.
