Mitie Foundation
At a glance
Key takeaways
- The Mitie Foundation's stated aim is to break down barriers to employment for disadvantaged groups, through Ready2Work and partnerships with other charities, so a small nonprofit whose work helps people into sustainable employment is the clearest fit.
- The annual report shows £55,316 awarded, but no grant range is stated, so keep any request modest and tied to a specific employability project.
- No application process is published, so get in touch through the contact shown before writing a proposal, and explain how your work connects with the Foundation's approach.
- No timing is stated, so ask about it when you make contact.
- Organisations whose work does not concern employment barriers or employability are unlikely to match its stated themes.
