As part of its 25th anniversary celebrations this year, Greenham Trust is launching its Anniversary Youth Appeal, aimed at supporting young people aged 11-25 in West Berkshire and north Hampshire. The Trust is contributing £250,000 in match funding to the Appeal, which has an overall fundraising target of £500,000, meaning that the value of incoming donations, proceeds from fundraising activities and charitable grants will be doubled £1 for £1.
The Anniversary Youth Appeal will support a range of good causes for children and young people most in need. Eligible charities and voluntary organisations will include those supporting young people with disabilities and their families, and those offering educational support, or guidance when it comes to training and employment opportunities. Non-profits providing mental health support through counselling and therapy, as well as anti-bullying projects, including those featuring cyber safety training; community youth groups, such as Scouts and Guides; sport and social activities; and any other projects helping young people to fulfil their potential, will also be able to apply for funding via the Youth Appeal.
Greenham Trust hopes that by matching donations £1 for £1, local businesses, schools and the wider community will get behind this very worthwhile cause.
