These applications are invited under the Aziz Foundation’s Beehive Programme, which recognises that significant knowledge and expertise for dealing with challenges and needs in disadvantaged communities lies in those communities. The Foundation is keen to support key national and local initiatives that provide strategic interventions, either directly through youth, community, and education work, or indirectly through arts, culture and sports.
Applications should be for grants between £500- £15,000 (restrictions apply) and should seek to address the disadvantage that individuals and communities face because of one or more of the areas listed above.
Who can Apply?
Applications are open to registered charities and not-for-profit organisations. However, in exceptional circumstances, bodies or individuals working outside of a registered organisation may be supported as and when authorised by the Board of Trustees.
