The LCVS Community Impact Fund (CIF) is now open

Deadline: Friday 18 October 2024 at 5 PM.

Our Community Impact Fund helps voluntary, community, faith, and social enterprise (VCFSE) sector organisations and registered charities do even more to build stronger communities across Liverpool and Merseyside.

Eligible organisations can apply for grants of up to £3,000 maximum, for projects that meet one or more of our four main priority areas:

  • Health
  • Education
  • Income stability
  • Arts and Culture

For this round, we will be prioritising funding projects that support Care Leavers and Women (experiencing poverty due to the impact of the cost-of-living crisis).

The definition we will be using in relation to Care Leavers for the purpose of this grant is: “Young people aged 16 -25, who have recently left the care of the Liverpool City Region Local Authority, or who are preparing to leave care.”

Applications will be assessed on the impact that the project will have on the lives of those who benefit. We’re looking for projects that help make a change for those most in need.

Based upon the high level of applications in previous years, we can only fund projects that align with our priority areas. Unfortunately, it’s for this reason that some good projects won’t be considered.
