The Boring Fund aims to help small non-profit organisations cover some of the boring costs that keep them running. Boring but essential things like insurance, web hosting, admin time - the stuff that’s always so hard to find funding for. It’s partly a funding experiment, partly making a point.
The Fund will keep things easy with the simplest application process, £200 grants, and no reporting. It's for small non-profit organisations (CICs, tiny charities, community groups), usually with one or two people doing all the jobs, and doing amazing things through sheer determination to make things better: food banks, youth clubs, arts projects, safe spaces, community events, and more.
By covering a little bit of the “boring stuff,” The Boring Fund wants to show how these brilliant organisations should be supported to keep doing what they do best – changing the world.
There is an online application process.
