Congratulations to our project grant recipients!

In the first of three funding rounds for 2024, the Stef & Philips Foundation provided 38 individual grants and 2 project grants totalling £10,000 to deliver projects in 21 London boroughs, from Enfield in the north to Croydon in the south.

The project grants have been awarded to two organisations, including Give Youth a Break, a social inclusion and welfare charity offering educational and recreational activities for disadvantaged youth across North London via after school clubs. With our support, they will be able to accompany their programmes with the provision of hot meals for children and young people residing in temporary and emergency accommodation!

Also awarded a project grant is Art4Space, which delivers creative workshops for displaced families living in temporary and emergency accommodation in Lambeth. The workshops encourage creative expression, support with holistic wellbeing, and provide a platform for families to connect with each other.

Alexandra Taliadoros, Director of the Stef & Philips Foundation said:

After launching just a few months ago we’ve already supported more than 600 children living in temporary and emergency accommodation with Christmas gifts, and now being able to grant £10,000 towards community projects and individual projects is truly incredible. To have made such a positive impact in such a short period of time just goes to show how vital this funding is for so many people as we go into the next funding rounds. We are immensely grateful to those who are committed to making a difference to the lives of others and supported the Foundation – their generosity made these grants possible.

The third round of our grants is currently open – you can apply HERE.

To be eligible for Foundation support, individuals must be living in temporary and emergency accommodation in a London borough. Organisations seeking funding must focus on community initiatives promoting social inclusion and welfare for those in temporary and emergency accommodation in a London borough.
