Grants for Good

The Grants for Good programme offers quarterly funding opportunities to small UK not-for-profit organisations. Every three months, five organisations receive a share of £10,000 for new projects and innovative ideas in community development, environment, local communities, and people-focused initiatives. The funding distribution is determined by votes from employees of the John Good Group, with awards ranging from £1,000 to £3,500 based on voting rankings. The programme is open to brand new projects with innovative ideas as well as established charities whose average annual income is less than £50,000. Eligible applicants include UK charities, community and voluntary groups, social enterprises, and individuals working on projects in the specified areas. The £10,000 is divided among five organisations based on employee voting: first place receives £3,500, second place receives £2,500, third place receives £2,000, and fourth and fifth place each receive £1,000. This competitive voting mechanism makes the programme unique among grant opportunities.
