The Community Foundation for Ireland’s Covid-19 Community Fund is aimed at the immediate needs of organisations impacted by Covid-19 and focused on the following:
People over 60 People with respiratory illnesses or cancer People experiencing domestic abuse Isolated vulnerable people and families, particularly those living in rural areas Mental health issues for those affected by Covid- 19 It is the expectation that the funding will support organisations to continue to provide services over the next one to six months and help in adapting services and methods of delivery.
Applications can be made to continue or adapt existing work or to pilot new work that will support those most vulnerable as a result of Covid-19. Any organisations affected by Covid-19 and working with the groups of people listed above can apply for grants between €1,000 and €10,000.
The Community Foundation for Ireland anticipates that organisations that are providing small scale emergency support will require funding of around €1,000 to €2,500. Those who are significantly enhancing their services at this time may require grants of up to €10,000.
