FunderFinder
FunderFinder GIN (Groups in Need)
and PIN (People in Need) prompts grant-seekers to describe
themselves and the work they are looking to fund in terms
which can be matched with the criteria used by funders.
Coded into funderfinder is
information about the criteria of over 4,500 funders. These
are the trusts and foundations about which there is published
information and which make grants to charities and voluntary
and community groups.
Both retrieve funders that
match the search profile entered by the grant-seeker, excludes
those that are inappropriate, ranks the funders found in best
match order and allows the user to consider 'near misses'.
A search produces a list of
funders which can be saved, exported and printed out. To use
this software please contact yorkcvs@yorkcvs.org.uk

Applications
to Charity of Jane Wright and York Fund for Women and Girls
The
following application forms can be used to apply to Charity of
Jane Wright and York Fund for Women and Girls on behalf of
individuals in York. The forms are designed to cover all the
points that Trustees wish to know about and it is therefore
important that you complete each section as best you can.
Please print and photocopy the forms as required. Urgent
applications to the Charity of Jane Wright for sums of less
than £200, should be sent to Colin Stroud, York CVS, 15
Priory Street, York, YO1 6ET. Applications exceeding this
amount, which are not urgent, should be addressed to Mr Peter
Baines, Clerk to the Trustees, 18 St. Saviourgate, York, YO1
2NS. Applications
to York Fund for Women and Girls should be sent to Jim Melvin,
Clerk to the Trustees, York CVS, 15 Priory Street, York, YO1
6ET. Both these charities will not usually make cheques
payable to an individual, and prefer to pay money to the
organisation making the application, which will be expected to
ensure the correct use of the money.
