Costco and United Way ‘Give Local Grants’ Programme – Derby

Active Derbyshire, Funding, News

Each year the national charity United Way UK, working in partnership with Costco, awards 30 grants of £1,500 each to small charities providing frontline services in their local communities.

The funding is for charities with programmes and services that align with United Way UK’s strategic priorities to provide long-term solutions including:

  • Health – including but not limited to mental health support, hunger prevention, access to housing.

The funding can be used for core costs, to start a new programme, or for the expansion of an existing programme.

All local charities with an annual income of less than £300,000 can apply as long as they are working in 30 geographical areas including Derby.

The deadline for applications is 31 August 2024.
