Let Yourself Grow Fund

Published - Thursday, 30 July, 2009

  

  • Last year's event was held at Althorp and raised a staggering £20,000 for the Let Yourself Grow Fund - this year we hope to surpass that amount.


As a donor led organisation The Northamptonshire Community Foundation provides a philanthropic and grant giving service that offers straightforward ways for people to give to smaller, grassroots organisations in their community.


A Celebration of Northamptonshire is proud to support Northamptonshire Community Foundation and the ‘Let Yourself Grow’ fund has been set up as a named fund which will be distributed to local, grassroots organisations within the County once a substantial amount has been raised. Last year, over £10,000 was raised on the evening and every £1 was match funded by the treasury.
The fund currently stands at just over £20,000 and this year we aim to surpass that. Projects that will benefit from the funds, will be wide ranging and will have an emphasis on small, mainly volunteer led organisations who work with the elderly, those with disabilities, children and young people and projects that support the artistic and cultural life of the county.

 

If you are interested in donating to this fund please contact Jessica Pilkington on 01604 230033 or email her on jessica@ncf.uk.com
