Grant applications for International Women’s Day (IWD) 2016 are now open and available to all voluntary and community groups that want to organise events and activities to mark and celebrate International Women’s Day.
The theme for 2016 is ‘Women’s Voices – Changing Manchester’. Groups are being urged to apply for grants of up to £1,000 to put on events that relate to the theme of giving women a voice, particularly women who are under represented in society and events which have a lasting impact on women in their communities.
The Power to Change Initial Grants Programme (IGP) is designed to help existing community businesses that are in a position to significantly improve their long-term sustainability within six months of receiving a grant. This means that the Fund is looking for applications from existing organisations, which already have business plans in place and are ready to start work quickly on their proposals. The longer term funds, which will launch in early 2016, will include opportunities for new and early stage organisations to apply for funding.
