Overview

Family Action has been distributing grants to help people and families in need since we were founded in 1869.

Family Actin know that by giving a small grant when it’s needed the most, they can remove immediate financial barriers, thereby helping families to work through the bigger issues they’re facing such as fleeing abuse or keeping their children in school.

Family Action's grants programmes complement their aim to strengthen families and communities, build skills and resilience and improve the life chances of everyone they work with.

Their small grants programmes focuses on the two areas of Welfare and Education. Family Action believe these to be two of the key areas in which they can really make a difference to support families, both those facing an immediate domestic need and those seeking to improve their educational and employment prospects.

Family Action is very honoured to have been chosen by Haley Yearwood to disburse the funds raised through her incredible crowdfunding appeal. They have established a grants scheme in order to disburse £750,000 of the money Haley raised. The rest of the money raised will fund a long term responsive service providing practical and emotional support to the Grenfell community. Please see their full press release for more information.
