Description
1) Objective
Reflecting the values of their founder Paul Hamlyn, the Foundation aims to improve opportunities and life chances for young people. Besides their support programs in the UK (including support programs in arts, migration and integration as well as a special youth fund), the Foundation also supports Indian development NGOs who work in health, education, women’s rights, children’s rights and political representation.
They fund organisations working with vulnerable communities. This includes but is not limited the following groups:
- Communities with little or no access to education
- Communities with little or no access to health services
- Dalit communities, particularly those in dangerous or harmful work
- Disabled people, particularly children
- Families living in extreme poverty
- Tribal communities fighting for or dispossessed of their land and resources
- Women
2) Eligibility
Eligible for funding are only local Indian NGOs with a Foreign Contribution Regulation Act (FCRA) registration (no support for locally registered branches of non-Indian organisations). At the meso/macro level, we will fund organisations that operate on a slightly larger scale and can view changes from a broader perspective. Initiatives at this level will bring together experiences from multiple smaller micro-level initiatives, compiling and consolidating their learning to help us address factors likely to improve the ecosystem.
3) Location
Their geographic focus is mainly on the poorest Indian states and priority is given to particularly vulnerable groups within Indian society. This focuses on central parts of India which are among the poorest parts of the country, stretching between the eastern part of Gujarat in the west to West Bengal and Assam in the east.
4) Budget
Funding ranges from ₹10,00,000 to ₹30,00,000 (app. €100,000-€300,000).
5) Application
They ask larger organisations to have a conversation with them first to see whether their funding is a good match for their work. An enquiry call can be booked online anytime. If they recommend you apply, you can submit a written application for funding through the online portal. Applications can be submitted at any time.
