Rewriting Earth
At a glance
Key takeaways
- Rewriting Earth funds charities and other organisations that conserve, protect and improve the natural environment and promote biodiversity, and its Save Our Grassroots match funding is aimed at grassroots pitches, sporting clubs and groups whose games have been cancelled, so a wider environmental project will fit that route less well.
- Its stated area is the UK, and applications are accepted on a rolling basis, so there is no deadline to work to.
- The only money figure given is the £100,000 available in match funding, and the annual report gave no readable grants figure and no grant range, so ask the funder what size of request it expects before you settle on an amount.
- Enquire through its website contact form and choose Save Our Grassroots Match Funding as the enquiry type.
