Grassroots Endowment Challenge
Take the Grassroots Challenge (and double the value of your donation!)
The Government has allocated £90,000 to Peterborough and £700,000 to Cambridgeshire – but this money can only be accessed as matched funding for private money placed in charitable long-term funds with us.You can help Peterborough and Cambridgeshire access the money, and thus ensure local voluntary and community groups have access to a long term sustainable source of grant funding, by making a donation into our Grassroots Endowment Fund For Peterborough or our Grassroots Endowment Fund For Cambridgeshire. To make a donation to either of these Funds please either use the online facility below or contact CCF to discuss.
Alternatively, you can double the value of your own personal or corporate charitable long-term fund managed by Cambridgeshire Community Foundation. For more information on how to set up your own Named Fund, please view the Setting up your own Named Fund page.
"it is clear how the Foundation helps donors to channel giving sensibly and fairly and even attracts Government co-sponsorship... I would like to become a regular individual donor" extract from an email to CCF following event in Nov 2009
