How to Identify Funders.

SCVO, HTSI or Foundation Scotland are good starting points in finding funders.  It is important to check eligibility before you make an application to avoid wasting time. Most funders are happy to speak with potential applicants to confirm eligibility and often they will offer tips to help you.
Key points
  • Do your research – SCVO, HTSI or Foundation Scotland are good starting points but a lot of the usual funders have specialist funds established or being created specifically for the COVID-19 Crisis
  • Check your eligibility before embarking on a funding application
  • Speak to potential funders, they are very helpful and talking to them could save you lots of time
  • Remember that charitable funders don't usually want to consider anything which could be perceived as statutory service provision
