Home / Coronavirus (COVID-19) / Aviva Community Fund

Aviva Community Fund

It gives charities & community interest companies the opportunity to further build their capabilities, drive sustainable fundraising & leverage our talented & enthusiastic workforce to get their best & brightest ideas off the ground.

Objectives of Fund

We want to support projects that boost the resilience of communities in the face of uncertainty, so we’re investing in two key areas:

  • Community resilience: Tackling inequality and improving environments to build more connected, more resilient communities
  • Financial capability and inclusion: Giving people the tools to become more financially independent.

Maximum value: £50,000

Who can apply

We believe that the charities that make the biggest impact are those that are given the opportunity to innovate and test new ideas without fear of risk. That’s why we’re focusing on funding small charities with forward-thinking ideas. To this end, any projects submitted should be to develop a new approach, product or technology, pilot a new scheme, implement a new initiative, or expand existing services to a new area or beneficiary group.

Your project must also:

  • Be submitted by an applicant aged 18 or older
  • Be UK based and for the benefit of UK communities
  • Not be for the benefit of anyone individual

Your project must also:

  • Be registered in the UK as a charity or community interest company
  • Have a bank account in its own name and have been operating for over 12 months
  • Have an annual income below £1 million

How to apply

On 21 January, eligible causes will be able to submit their projects to the Aviva Community Fund through Crowdfunder. Funding applications are open to projects looking to secure up to £50,000.

We’ve streamlined the process so that, unlike earlier years, there are no activity categories or funding levels you need to select. If you need any help, we’ll guide you through the process with free toolkits and resources.

For more information please visit the AVIVA Community fund website.

We welcome your enquiries!
