Description
1) Objective
As one of the world’s largest automobile companies, with operations in more than 170 countries, Toyota has introduced the Toyota Fund for Europe (TFfE) that provides financial and practical contributions to projects that seek to improve the lives and sustainability of European communities. The Fund operates at a pan-European level to support projects operating across a number of different European countries or regions. In parallel, local Toyota subsidiaries support local projects that operate in their home country or region.
Priority areas are the environment, road safety and technical education. The three priority areas are: (1) environment: TFfE helps by building working relationships so that people can share knowledge on environmental solutions available today; (2) road safety: TFfE helps by promoting awareness on road safety and promoting solutions regarding vehicle safety, responsible driving attitude and safe road infrastructure; and (3) education: TFfE helps by supporting projects where future generations learn about environmental or Road Safety issues and how they can solve them, or projects where Toyota can share its technical knowledge to with future engineers or technicians.
2) Eligibility
Eligible applicants are non government organisations and private entities.
3) Location
Actions can take place in Europe.
4) Budget
Since 2005 the Fund has invested €56 million in projects across Europe, supporting over 2,000 local initiatives (average grant size €28,000).
5) Application
Each local Toyota company operates its own funding to support local projects. All proposals will be evaluated by the local Toyota company, following its local selection criteria. Applications can be made at any time throughout the year.
