Grants from the Britainnia Building Society Foundation
4 November 2009
The Britannia Building Society Foundation offers grants and donations between £1,000 and £25,000 to registered charities and schools working within education, particularly numeracy and/or financial literacy.
Community involvement provides Britannia with a significant way of putting their values into practice and of contributing to the communities in which people live and work.
Applications are welcomed from:
- Registered charities and schools: Any registered charity or school working within key priorities and operating in an area where Britannia has a high density of members.
- National charities: Any national charity working within key priorities that can ring fence their activities to a local community where Britainnia has a high density of members.
Note: The Foundation prefers buying specific items of equipment but in some circumstances will consider capital expenditure and salary costs.
