Details

The Foundation supports charities registered in the United Kingdom, the dominant purpose of which is to benefit either the Arts or Learning. Organisations and projects that provide direct benefits and services to the general public (rather than special interest groups) will be favoured.

They can fund:

• Project revenue costs.
• Essential equipment and digital services.
• Core costs, which is aimed at those with no, or without significant, public funding.
• Capital projects.

For projects working in the Arts, the Foundation seeks applications that make a strong artistic case for support in either the performing or visual arts. The Arts programme aims to help sustain the arts and to support projects that help to deliver your artistic vision.

For Learning charities, the Foundation will support projects which facilitate the acquisition of knowledge and learning and which have a long-term strategic impact.

The Foyle Foundation will complete its grant giving programme in 2025 and all projects must be completed by the end of 2025.
