Social Entrepreneurship Grants

Issues

▪   Students from marginalised communities cannot employ their skills due to lack of existing opportunities or support in their local areas
▪   Students do not have funds to start their own programmes
▪   Programmes started by alumni need to have a source of income to become sustainable and have long-term impacts

Objectives

▪ To provide one-time grants to recently graduated students with a clear financial need who want to start a programme of their own making
▪ To support alumni who want to use their skills in their communities to achieve wider social benefits
▪ To assist in the development of a student-led programme so that it is able to generate income and ideally become self-sustaining
