Key takeaways

  • UKCAB publishes no grant scheme, application process or public criteria, so the sensible first step is to contact it rather than submit a formal application.
  • If your work touches education and training, kidney health or organ-donation awareness, hunger relief, clean water or inclusion, it sits within the areas the annual report describes, though UKCAB presents these as its own community programmes rather than as grants it makes to others.
  • Its annual report gives total giving of £418,522, which may include grants to individuals, and the register does not confirm that scale, so do not assume any particular size of award.
  • No grant range or typical grant band is stated, so ask the contact what request size would be realistic before you write a full proposal.
  • The register lists areas of operation including Pakistan, Nigeria and several UK cities, but no geographic focus is stated, so treat that list as information rather than an eligibility rule and ask directly.

What they fund

Priority Areas

UKCAB presents its work mainly through community programmes and services, rather than describing a public grant scheme. Its work centres on accessible education and training; kidney-health and organ-donation awareness; support for people facing hunger and homelessness; clean water; and inclusion, including transgender people. It combines practical services and health-related support with education, awareness-raising and assistance to local communities. Its stated approach is to take practical action, collaborate with local partners and use resources responsibly, aiming for measurable and lasting impact. The foundation also describes education about kidney disease and organ donation for the general public and organisations. Its annual report says the Global Kidney Foundation project donates funds to hospitals and provides equipment and other facilities, but gives no public criteria for organisations seeking support.
