Just Act, the online community that helps people who want to make a difference in their local area, has now become part of the Crowdfunder family. Because Just Act have taken over the day-to-day running of the website they’ve created the Just Act Community Fund, distributing £50,000 to community projects across England and Wales. Just Act will be adding up to 50% of the funding target to a maximum of £1,000 to volunteer-led community projects that will change lives for the better. 
Your project must:
• be located in England or Wales
• benefit at least 20 people based in England or Wales
• clearly demonstrate it has a positive impact on the community
• be led and/or delivered by volunteers
• be delivered by an organisation with an annual income of less than £50,000
• use the 'All-or-Nothing' funding option only
• start delivery of the community project activity by 31 December 2016
• have a total project value of less than £10,000
What Just Act will fund: 
• Up to 50% of your Crowdfunder project target to a maximum of £1,000
• You must achieve your total project target (at least 100%) to receive Just Act funds
• Just Act will apply a pledge to your crowdfunding campaign once you have achieved 25% of your funding target, which must have come from at least 5 unique backers (people who pledge on your project).
If you subsequently fail to reach your project target you will not receive Just Act funds.
