BlueSpark Foundation supports the education and development of children and young people by providing grants for educational, cultural, sporting and other projects.
The foundation aims to help children and young people between the ages of 5 and 22 to reach their full potential by supporting projects that:
- encourage independence
- develop team working skills
- develop self confidence
- promote creativity & individuality
- encourage aspiration
- enhance educational achievement
- widen educational horizons
Projects can include a range of activities such as academic education, drama, sport, enterprise, debating, art and design, music, community activities and educational excursions.
Grants are available for specific projects only and cannot be used towards running costs or general activities. Many of the grants provided are for less than £2,000 and the maximum is £5,000. The funding is for projects which might not happen at all or would only happen on a lesser scale without the support of the foundation.
BlueSpark Foundation accepts applications from schools, community groups, clubs, societies and other not-for-profit organisations. Individuals may also apply.
