Description
1) Objective
The Kitchen Table Charities Trust was created to help small charities, working mostly in Africa, which are using small amounts of money to transform peoples lives. KTCT funds are used to improve social and economic conditions and the general well-being of communities. In rare and exceptional cases they may be used to benefit individuals – usually on humanitarian grounds.
The focus areas include:
- Improving conditions for pupils at primary schools (essential repairs and maintenance, classroom furniture etc).
- Health and safe, clean water projects, including rainwater harvesting and storage installations.
- Child and mother care, including street children projects and the training of midwives.
- Poverty alleviation, including income generating schemes and support for small groups of subsistence farmers; such as the construction or repair of irrigation systems and grain stores.
2) Eligibility
Applicants must be registered as a charity in the UK or in their country of operation (Africa). Organisations must provide annual auditing or independent examination of accounts as well as publication of a periodic newsletter or annual report -(in which KTCT support should be acknowledged).
3) Location
They work across Africa.
4) Budget
Grants rarely exceed £6,000 per project or organisation. An average of 20-25 projects per year are funded. All applicants must have annual auditing or independent examination of accounts. No part of any grant should be spent in Britain on administration – including salaries and advertising campaigns.
5) Application
As the grant program has grown, so have the number of applications received for grants from small charities. The Trust has now set up a small committee to consider applications. Applications can be sent throughout the year to donaldsonatKTCT1(a)yahoo.co.uk.
