Footprint Friends Foundation
The Foundation is the not for profit, charitable arm of Footprint Friends. It has been set up to allow the limited company to use and distribute charitable funds to support a range of young people’s environmental initiatives.
A percentage of the Footprint Friends Ltd company profits go into the Foundation as which is supplemented by monies raised through specific fundraising activities – such as sponsored events.
Other funds from the Footprint Friends Foundation are given out in grants to young people who have an environmental project or scheme they wish to start or maintain but who would not be eligible for money from the large trusts or charitable funds such as the Lottery. These are small scale, local projects run by the young people, often through existing networks such as Scouts or Brownie packs, through schools or youth clubs. While the grants are small, typically only a few hundred pounds and never more than a thousand, the difference these projects make is huge.
By providing seed corn funding or core support we enable young people to take ownership of their ideas and make them a reality and a small grant can effect an enormous change.
