Cosaraf Charitable Foundation’s Hardship Grants

Grants to Support Individuals & Families in Need.

Grants are available to charities, housing associations, schools and social services providing support for individuals and families across the UK who are in financial need.

The Hardship Fund offers grants to those living in the UK only.  Grants of up to £2,000 are available for eligible individuals and families, but only in exceptional circumstances will individual grants exceed £500.

The Cosaraf Charitable Foundation’s Hardship Grants will support individuals and families who have exhausted all other sources of funding and are struggling with everyday costs, such as basic living expenses, household items and utilities, work- or education-related expenses, or rent arrears.

Priority will be given to the most financially excluded people, families over individuals, those with caring responsibilities, and to items that will make the most difference to the individual/family’s long-term future.

Applications can be made at any time and are assessed every six weeks.
