Grant News

Registered charities in the UK can apply for grants of up to £2,500 to support challenged and vulnerable young people under the age of 16. The 7stars Foundation is committed to providing funding for projects that directly address the needs of young people facing challenges such as abuse, addiction, homelessness, and caring responsibilities.

Eligible charities must have an annual turnover of less than £1.5 million and be working in areas of deprivation and disadvantage. Projects should aim to empower young people, provide immediate support, and address gaps in existing services. Examples of eligible projects include recreational activities, mentoring programs, and counseling sessions.

The 7stars Foundation also offers two additional funding streams:

• Shine Bright Grants: Up to £1,500 to purchase educational, wellbeing, or recreational items for young people under 16.

• Individual Funding: Up to £500 for young people who are represented by a safeguarding, legal, social, or outreach professional.

The next funding application deadline is January 31, 2024.
