Julia and Hans Rausing Trust has announced a new grants programme to further the efforts of foodbanks across the UK in tackling the growing food poverty crisis.
To be eligible to apply, organisations must:
- Be not-for-profit
- Run a foodbank that has been running for six months or more which regularly gives out emergency food parcels at least once each week
- Have an annual income of between £25,000 and £1,000,000
- Not have reserves above one year's running costs
The minimum amount which can be applied for is £500. The Trust does not give out grants that are greater than 20% of an organisation’s annual expenditure – though this should not be considered a target amount to request.
Grants can be used to cover costs associated with all aspects of foodbank service provision including rent, staffing and storage and distribution costs.
