De La Salle Great Britain CIO
At a glance
This funder does not accept unsolicited applications. Don't spend time on an approach; the similar funders below support the same kind of work.
Key takeaways
- The Lasallian Leavening Fund is open only to Lasallian schools and pastoral centres within the district of Ireland, Great Britain and Malta, so other organisations should not apply, and every project must include at least one of the five core Lasallian principles and benefit students or Young Lasallians.
- Its stated maximum is up to €2,000, which suits a modest, focused project rather than a large capital request.
- Applications are invited from May 15th up until September 30th, the process repeats annually, and the Fund says there will be a chance to apply again next year, so a missed window means waiting for the next round.
- The published details conflict on method: one summary says the charity accepts requests by invitation only and does not accept unsolicited requests, while the application section describes a form, so confirm with the charity before preparing anything.
Overview
De La Salle Great Britain CIO is a charity registered with the Charity Commission for England and Wales (charity number 1208212).
De La Salle Great Britain CIO is a charity registered in England and Wales, set up to advance the Roman Catholic religion and the education of the public through schools, colleges, pastoral centres and other educational establishments. Through Lasallian Projects it provides funds and support for developing educational facilities overseas, with teams of young volunteers helping with construction and teaching in African, Asian and South American countries. Its annual report gives one total of £23,547 awarded, which may include grants to individuals, and beyond its Lasallian Leavening Fund, which offers project grants to Lasallian schools and pastoral centres, making grants is not a central part of its work.
What they fund
Priority Areas
The Lasallian Leavening Fund offers project grants to Lasallian schools and pastoral centres in Ireland, Great Britain and Malta. Projects should benefit students or Young Lasallians and help them understand and act on political, social, economic, spiritual or environmental challenges. They must include at least one of the five core Lasallian principles. The Fund identifies care for our common home, people on the peripheries, Catholic social teaching and spiritual formation as areas for action, and encourages creative ideas. Beyond the Fund, making grants and donations is not a central part of the charity's activities; its report says donations are made only when trustees consider there is real need after reviewing each case.
