Applications can be made for work taking place anywhere in the world. Apply before February 29th, though future rounds are expected later in the year.

The Scott Bader Commonwealth Local Charity Fund is back, offering awards of up to £10,000 to projects focused on education, poverty or the environment in communities where the company operates around the world including the UK, USA, South Africa, India and several other nations. First-time applicants are encouraged to apply for up to £4,000 only. The fund operates four application windows per year and the next deadline is February 29th.
