Trust and Foundations
Grant-Making Foundations
Grant-Making Foundations have provided an important source of income for the Dame Vera Lynn Trust over many years and have been essential to the establishment, continuation and growth of the School for Parents.
We have been fortunate to receive sizeable donations from some of the larger Trusts, but we are also grateful to the smaller Trusts who have consistently supported us with much-needed grants. We are supported by national, local and personal private trusts with help ranging from one off and regular gifts to grants over 3 years ranging from £20 to £129,000.
Grant-Making Foundations have been very helpful in enabling us to get a number of new projects off the ground and particular examples have been the funding of new staff members and the supply of new children’s play equipment. We are always looking to build relationships with new Trust donors and we have a range of projects and services for Trusts to support ranging from aspects of child education services to specific items of equipment.
Below are some of the Trusts and Foundations that have given us their support for a number of years:
The Sir Jules Thorn Charitable Trust
Garfield Weston Foundation
Downlands Educational Trust
Gatwick Airport Community Trust who supported us recently with a grant.
