Arts for Impact fund now open
Arts for impact are excited to share that Big Give, in partnership with Figurative Philanthropy for Arts & Culture, is now accepting applications for their third Arts for Impact campaign, supporting arts and culture charities across the UK driving positive social impact.
What’s the campaign about?
Arts for Impact gives charities the chance to have public donations doubled through match funding provided by their Champions, typically philanthropists, foundations, and companies who believe in the power of the arts to create lasting change.
Who can apply?
Charities with arts and culture in their core mission, seeking funds for projects that deliver meaningful, transformational outcomes for the communities and people they engage with. For full details on the eligibility criteria and how to apply, visit: biggive.org/artsforimpact/
How to apply?
Charities have two different funding streams that they can choose to apply for:
Raise up to £7,500 in public donations, doubled through our 1:1 match funding model
Raise up to £30,000 in public donations, doubled through our pledge match funding model (with up to £15,000 in Champion funds available).
