Launch of Emergency Grants for BAME Communities – stage two

27 Aug 2020 - 14:21 by michelle.foster

GM BAME Network, supported by GMCVO, have launched the second stage of the emergency grants programme to support small GM BAME led VCSE organisations and communities affected by the COVID-19 pandemic.

Stage two will be launched on 1 September 2020 and will close on 13 October 2020, 12pm.

Stage two is a competitive small grants programme awarding grants of £1,000-£3,000 to organisations with an income of under £30,000.

The first stage, a rolling micro grants programme, awards grants of £50-£1,000 (for organisations with an income of under £10,000) on an ongoing basis between 27 July and 31 October 2020. Decisions are made within 3 weeks.

The grants are funded by Comic Relief and the National Emergency Fund in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.

The grants will fund new activities and services as well as the additional costs of adapting existing services due to COVID-19. The grants will also help counter the loss of fundraising income directly caused by the pandemic.
