Have you got an idea to make the world a better place for people? Are you involved in a group or project locally that could make a difference to people’s lives? Have you left JVC and want to carry on with supporting social justice?
The Jesuit Fund for Social Justice (JFSJ) provides grants of up to £2,000 to support projects that further social justice. Applications are taken from people like you who have a connection to the Society’s work and are currently involved in a social justice project.
A grant might be useful to help you get a new idea started or take an existing piece of work forward. The work may be a one-off, such as a fact-finding or group building trip, purchasing computer equipment, producing flyers, etc, or it may be long term, such as the establishment of a play scheme for refugee children or a craft project for older people. The JFSJ can be involved as a part-funder if a larger sum of money is required.
So if you are a current or former JVCer, perhaps the Fund for Social Justice is for you!
The fund is also available to Jesuits, students, parishioners and workers in Jesuit institutions. How Do I Apply? If you are a JV now, do talk to the JVC team about how you can use the JFSJ. All eligible applications are considered.
A simple application form and guidelines are available for download from the website www.jesuitfsj.org If you would like to know more please email: secretary@jesuitfsj.org.
