The Fat Beehive Foundation is an independent UK registered charity that provides small grants for websites and digital products to other small UK registered charities.
Our aim is to help these organisations carry out their work in a more efficient and effective way, resulting in positive social benefit.
We only fund charities with an average income of less than £400,000 a year. As we aren’t a large funder, we provide highly specialised grants up to £2500 and can’t fund every charity that applies to us – much as we would like to.
The team at DIY SOS are on the lookout for their next BIG BUILD project!
Do you run a not-for-profit Dance Organisation/Project which supports a local community? If that sounds like you, do you regularly use or own a building that’s in need of renovation? If so, we’d love to hear you from you.
Please get in touch asap at: diysos.bigbuild@bbc.co.uk
