Running from 1 May 2006 to 30 April 2007, the Programme has £1.2 million to give away and awards grants through two funds: the Consultancy and Training Fund and the Collaborative Fund.
According to Victoria Anderson, Head of Grantmaking at CAF:
Wales-based charity, Valeways, and the Big Issue Foundation are just two of the 16 charities to receive support from CAF. Founded in 1966 to improve and maintain access to the Vale of Glamorgan’s beautiful countryside, Valeways received a five day ‘Healthcheck’ and 12 days consultancy time for an organisational review, including business and strategic planning.
The Big Issue Foundation works together with the Big Issue Company to create opportunities for people facing homelessness to take greater control of their lives. They received support from CAF to assist with business planning.
CAF is inviting applications from charitable organisations with an annual income of up to £3 million to get their applications in before the 6 October deadline. To find out more, or to apply for funding online, visit www.cafonline.org/grants.
