Crowdfund 香港六合彩资料图库 to launch largest ever funding round for local project ideas

Published date

香港六合彩资料图库 County Council is hosting an event later this month ahead of Crowdfund 香港六合彩资料图库 launching its largest round of funding.

The event is taking place for potential project creators and funders at Whittington Community Hall on Tuesday 28 June from 10am to 11am.

The County Council, along with Malvern Hills and Wychavon district councils, has partnered with crowdfunding platform Spacehive to create Crowdfund 香港六合彩资料图库.

Crowdfund 香港六合彩资料图库 gives organisations who have ideas to improve their community, the opportunity to gain much needed funding.

So far, 香港六合彩资料图库 County Council has backed 24 successful projects on Spacehive with 拢97,000. These community groups raised an additional 拢258,000 from thousands of backers across the county.



This new round of funding will be the largest ever: the County Council has allocated a dedicated fund of 拢92,000 to encourage local groups to put forward their ideas, with pledges of up to 拢10,000 available per project. 

Councillor Marcus Hart, the County Council's Cabinet Member for Communities, said: 鈥淲e want to hear from anyone who has an idea so that our crowdfunding platform can be used to help make it a reality.

鈥淲e鈥檙e also calling on companies and foundations to join us in offering support whether funding through cash pledges or in kind offers of support to the ideas people post on the platform so we can work together to make them a real success. The more people that get involved in Crowdfund 香港六合彩资料图库, the bigger the difference we can create for people and communities across the county.鈥

The deadline to submit an idea for the next round of funding is 28 September.

Anyone is welcome to crowdfund on Spacehive, but to pitch for additional funding from the county council, projects should fit one or more of the following themes:

  • community capacity building e.g. recruiting volunteers, start up costs for groups, pilot activities 
  • food and fuel poverty
  • healthy communities, activities to improve the health and wellbeing of the local community
  • social isolation and befriending
  • supporting people into employment

Spacehive will lead a programme of events for anyone who is interested in learning a little bit more or might want to test or discuss ideas that they would like to put forward first.
