VSGS

In 2008-11 VAF awarded grants to 62 organisations to assist the development of high quality volunteering opportunities and volunteer support. Typically grant is used to pay for the costs of a Volunteer Coordinator who recruits, trains and supports volunteers to get the most out of their experience. Alongside grant, VAF provides training and networking opportunities for the organisations that receive a grant so that they can share their experience with other organisations and learn from each other's successes and challenges.

The funding available to VAF to operate this programme is currently all distributed and so unfortunately we are unable to offer grants at the moment.
