Funding Friday
IT4Good – WCIT Charity
The WCIT Charity is a national charity with a City of London home. Our purpose is to use the power of tech for impact through digital inclusion, education, charitable, and public engagement initiatives across the entire UK.
As an IT charity, all projects they fund must make use of information technology, and must relate to one or more of their priority areas
- Education
- Inclusion
- IT for charities
- Public understanding of IT
Projects need to demonstrate an innovative use of IT, be scalable for wider replication, and be sustainable over time.
Projects funded are usually up to £15,000.
Applications for funding may be submitted at any time and are considered at one of four meetings a year.
