Find Funds: Local Grants

Funding for All offers Kent & Medway charities and voluntary sector organisations mentoring and resources to help increase their chances of fundraising success. That’s why we’ve created a grants database for groups to access at any time, completely free.

By using the filters below, quickly search for local and national funding sources that are currently accepting applications.

If you need some support putting together an application, take a look at our mentoring programme or our upcoming events.

Funding for All is not a grant maker and does not award funding. We are not affiliated with any of the funders listed on our database nor does inclusion mean Funding for All endorses the linked site/funder. If you have questions, please use the link provided on the listing to contact the funder directly for more information.
