Persimmon Homes is urging youth groups, schools and sports clubs across Swindon to apply for a share of its £1million charity giveaway.
The scheme aims to support community groups working with under-18s across three categories – education and arts, health and sport.
Managing director Richard Briggs said: “As the country really starts to feel the effects of the Covid-19 outbreak, we believe that now more than ever we need to look after the health and wellbeing of the youngest members of our communities.
“We will make donations from £1,000 to £100,000 to grassroots sports groups, charities dealing with physical and mental health issues, as well as community arts and education projects.
“This funding could make a huge difference to schools, clubs and charities, so we really need them to apply now.”
Projects must make their applications to the Building Futures scheme at www.persimmonhomes.com/building-futures/ before the closing deadline of May 31.
