Hi GYCAers,
Have a look at this grant opportunity below.
Can your organisation encourage more young people to volunteer?
The Welsh Assembly Government has made £405,000 available to support projects that
will bring about a step change in the number of young people volunteering and the
diversity of volunteers.
The aim of the new GwirVol Youth Volunteering Grants scheme is to support the delivery
and promotion of a wide range of new volunteering opportunities by third sector
organisations in Wales, especially for disadvantaged young people. Separate application
packs are available for ‘Opportunities’ or ‘Promotion’ grants.
Priority young people:
The grants scheme aims to prioritise opportunities with and for a diverse range of young
people ﴾aged 16 – 25﴿, particularly:
· Young people from disadvantaged communities: particularly Communities First
areas and Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic communities
· Young people with physical or learning disabilities
· Young people aged 16-18
How much is available?
· ‘Opportunities’: project funding of up to £10,000 for activities that will deliver a wide
range of new and innovative volunteering experiences for young people aged 16-25,
either with your own or another organisation.
· ‘Promotion’: project funding of up to £5,000 will promote volunteering to and for young
people aged 16-25, eg through promotional events, websites, exhibitions, or visits.
You must be able to give a clear description of how you will approach and attract young
people; particularly those that are disadvantaged or excluded; how you will measure
success and how you will spend the money
All projects must be completed and accounted for by 31 March 2011. Any funding not
spent by that date must be repaid.
When can you apply?
All complete applications, with all supporting documents, must be received by 30 June 2009 at the latest.
Application packs are available from WCVA Helpdesk 0800 2888 329 or www.wcva.org.uk,
or email help (at) wcva.org.uk
Wish you all the best!
Regards,
BARRY
