Help a London Child - 3rd June and 3rd November 2010

Help a London Child aims to give opportunities to the Capital's children and
young people who experience poverty and disadvantage; have/are experiencing
abuse, neglect, homelessness, violence or crime; or who have an illness or
disability.

If your charity or voluntary group works with children and young people fitting
into one or more of the categories in our funder statement above, then please do
consider requesting funding in 2010. Please note that statutory organisations
such as schools, local authorities and hospitals cannot apply to Help a London
Child.

When applying for a grant, groups can request a maximum of £3,000. In 2009's 1st
Round the average award was just under £2,000.

Each year there are two funding rounds, and organisations may only submit one
application to HALC per year, to either the 1st or 2nd deadline.

Thursday 3rd June - requesting funding for on-going, new and one-off projects
starting from November 2010 and not before.

projects starting from April 2011 and not before.
