The Youth Philanthropy Initiative has recently received funding from the Government’s Social Action Fund. The Minister said:
“The Youth and Philanthropy Initiative is clearly making a real difference to communities across the UK. The money we have awarded through the Social Action Fund means this hugely successful initiative can extend its reach beyond London enabling more young people to support local good causes. It will broaden young people’s horizons, empower them to address community issues and gives them real opportunities to develop their teamwork and presentation skills. Head teachers across the country should embrace this programme.”
