About This Opportunity

The Deakin and Withers Fund, administered by South Yorkshire's Community Foundation, provides grants to women nationwide who are experiencing financial difficulty and hardship. The fund is specifically designed to support women over 40 years old who are single, divorced, or widowed and are active members of a Church. The grants can be used to pay utility bills or purchase household items to ease financial hardship. Applications are accepted on a rolling basis throughout the year, with decisions typically made within six weeks. The fund requires applications to be read and witnessed by a Member of the Church before submission, and supporting documentation such as bank statements and quotes must be provided.
