Pride in Maidstone Funding Deadline Approaching
The deadline for applying for funding from Maidstone Borough Council's Pride in Maidstone Fund is 14th June 2013.
The one-off £70,000 fund was launched in 2012 to support community projects throughout the borough to build strong communities, tackle disadvantage and increase employment opportunities. Applications are welcome from community groups, voluntary organisations, charities, social enterprises and not-for-profit organisations who wish to run projects to improve or support the wellbeing of communities or deliver improvements to the local economy. The projects should complement the borough council’s priorities for Maidstone to have a growing economy and for it to be a decent place to live. There is no minimum or maximum level of funding to be requested from the Fund.
