If you’ve got a great idea, vcashpoint’s got the money. Read the vcashnotes and apply online (or on paper) for up to £2500 to help you turn your ideas into reality. It’s easy!

How can I spend the cash?

vcashpoint funds new projects that are led by young people and really make a difference to the community. Your project should create at least three new opportunities for young people to volunteer – so there’s every opportunity to get your mates on board.

How about:

• running activities for children
• transforming a community space
• supporting victims of bullying
• running workshops for young people
• setting up a campaign
• clearing up a beach
• running music, art or sports events for disadvantaged people
• organising a festival to bring different cultures or communities together
• or something totally different… Be creative!

vcashpoint will fund new projects or ideas which aim to expand or develop projects which have been carried out once in the past, involving new young volunteers.

All projects must:

• create at least three NEW volunteering opportunities for 16-25 year olds,
• be youth-led
• take place in England
• benefit a chosen community
• vcashpoint must be the only source of funding for the project.
