Want to make a real impact right here in Sunderland?

Community Foundation North East and The Rank Foundation have teamed up to launch an exciting participatory grant-making programme, putting funding decisions directly into local hands!

We are looking for up to 20 community representatives from all walks of life to join in, design a funding scheme, and decide together where local grants should go. No previous grant-making experience or technical background is needed at all, just a passion for supporting Sunderland and making a difference! You can nominate a volunteer, someone who uses local services, or a passionate neighbour. Selected participants will have their volunteer expenses covered, and younger participants are welcome with a representative!

Know someone who would be perfect, or want to get involved yourself? Submit a nomination by sending the nominee’s name, contact details, and a short note on why they’d love to join to [email protected]

Got questions? Reach out to Alejandra Arcila via email at [email protected]
