The KFC Youth Foundation is offering grants of up to £3,000 per year for up to two years for youth-focused charities and community interest companies (CICs) across the UK.
Funding is to deliver projects for young people that create safe spaces, offer diversionary activities, and build life skills, to help them feel secure, empowered, and ready for a positive future.
Proposed projects should align with the following priorities:
Grassroots organisations with an annual income of less than £400,000 working with young people aged between 11 and 25 living in areas of high deprivation can apply.
If applications are high, priority will go to organisations located in the top 10% most deprived neighbourhoods, according to the Index of Multiple Deprivation (IMD).
Grants available for UK-based Charities/Charitable Incorporated Organisations (CIOs) working with vulnerable children and young adults, especially those at risk of sexual and other forms of exploitation.
Grants for UK-registered charities for projects supporting people experiencing or at risk of homelessness. Projects should provide life skills, including food education, healthy living and budgeting.
Grants for registered charities for initiatives that support and encourage the family to work as a cohesive unit in tackling problems that face one or more of its members.
