CLAPHAM Village Store and Home-Start Craven are two of eight organisations in Yorkshire which have been awarded grants from a £14,000 funding pot.
The awards are from Two Ridings Community Foundation to help support vulnerable residents and individuals who are suffering hardship during the coronavirus pandemic.
Two Ridings Community Foundation supports charitable organisations and groups across the counties of North and East Yorkshire. It has allocated the first grants to local charities and groups on behalf of National Emergencies Trust (NET) and its public appeal to raise funds in partnership with the British Red Cross.
The grants have been allocated to organisations that can make the most impact quickly to support the most vulnerable residents living in North and East Yorkshire, ensuring the public’s donations are spent most effectively in these challenging times.
Further grants will be allocated over the coming weeks as fundraising efforts continue.
