How To Apply

 Eligibility

First, please ensure that you are eligible under our policy:

• Check that your organisation/project is based within our geographic area.

If you are unsure about your eligibility or have queries about any aspect of your application, please do contact us by ‘phone prior to submitting your application.

 Application Procedure

Print off and fill in the application cover sheet and enclose it with information describing your organisation, its history, activities, beneficiaries, achievements to date and current funding needs. Please enclose copies of most recent reports and accounts. If you have a project, describe its purpose, targets, budget, and timescale.

All applications will be acknowledged and we will contact you for any further information we require. All charities and projects will be visited before a grant is approved.

Timing of Applications: Trustee Meetings are held regularly throughout the year and there are no specific dates for applications to be received.

If you have any questions about your project or wish to discuss the eligibility of your funding application prior to submission, please contact the Administrator via the 'contact us' section.

Timing of Applications: Trustee Meetings are held regularly throughout the year and there are no specific dates for applications to be received.  However, organisations should be aware that applications are considered in chronological order and it can take up to six months for the process to be completed.

 Effectiveness of Funding

We are committed to maximising the effectiveness of our funding, so all awards are monitored to assess their success in fulfilling the objectives of the Morgan Foundation to 'make a difference'.

The methods and requirements of this process will vary depending on the type and purpose of the funding and will be agreed in advance with the recipients.   For example, in cases of core or project funding we would require regular reports and updates and would visit the organisation periodically to maintain contact and ensure we were offering the best form of support. 

Grant recipients are encouraged to develop suitable monitoring and reporting procedures in partnership with us, to enable clear results of their work to be demonstrated.

 Unsuccessful Applications

Like most charitable foundations we receive many more applications than we can fund, so unfortunately we do have to turn down some projects even if they fall within our eligibility criteria.
