Rushmoor Voluntary Services
At a glance
Key takeaways
- Rushmoor Voluntary Services makes small grants, and its stated themes are alleviating poverty, distress and sickness, and providing respite for carers, so a request should show how the work meets one of them.
- Recent awards have included £200, £300 and £500, and the annual report shows £18,243 paid in grants, so a modest, clearly costed request fits what it has been giving.
- Applications are accepted on a rolling basis and trustees meet quarterly to decide them, so email a letter to ceo@rvs.org.uk saying what the money is for, how much you need and who will benefit.
- Organisations that do not work in the Rushmoor area should not apply, as the fund is for organisations working there.
