About our funding

We’re excited to announce that the Friends Provident Foundation grants programme will be undergoing changes. The last deadline to apply under our current programme is 15th April 2024.

 

We fund organisations and initiatives aligned with our vision of cultivating a fair and sustainable economy. Our current funding programme focuses on key areas, such as supporting economic transformation, empowering marginalised voices, and driving equitable systemic change. We offer project funding, core funding for specific partners, and a small grants programme for emerging initiatives within the economic sphere.

 

The forthcoming deadline will apply to all types of funding currently being offered.

 

We’re committed to fostering positive economic systems change and supporting impactful initiatives. We look forward to sharing more information on our new grants programme, in the coming months.
