Once you send an idea to us, we will review it and get back to you in a couple of weeks. If it’s something we could fund, we will ask you to fill out a full application form.
We will review your full application internally with our team, and may ask you to make updates to give it the best chance of success when it goes to the committee. That application then goes to a decision-making committee, made up of Trust and Charity staff.
Evelina Fund decision-making committees meet 4 times a year. You could get an idea funded in as little as 3 months but this depends on whether we have further questions about your application, Charity capacity, and whether specific fundraising to support your idea is needed.
