New fund for women launched

Howard Lake | 14 January 2009 | News

The Community Foundation for Ireland has launched a new nationwide fund, the OLC Ireland Trust Fund, and has called for applications from registered charities and not for profit organisations around Ireland who work with marginalised women.
The OLC Ireland Trust Fund is managed by The Community Foundation for Ireland on behalf of The Sisters of Our Lady of Charity. The Fund will support projects that most closely fit the criteria of organisations’ working with women tackling addictions, prostitution and trafficking, violence and abuse. The goal of the fund is to provide resources which will help educate, develop and enhance the lives and dignity of marginalised women.
This new Fund has been opened with a total of €85,500 available for grant-making in 2009. It will award grants four times per year with the first closing date for applications being March 31st 2009. Grants will be in the region of €500 to €5,000 except in exceptional circumstances when a maximum of €10,000 will be awarded. Grants will be made for once-off projects that are not the core or ongoing activities of the organisation concerned.
Closing date for the first round of grant applications is March 31st 2009. Application forms for the OLC Ireland Trust Fund are now available at www.communityfoundation.ie/grants or contact The Community Foundation for Ireland directly at 01 874 7354 or
