Apply for a Community Grant for your Fair Trade Project

Support For Your Project

Small Grants to Support your Campaigning

Our small grants for community Fair Trade projects have funded school competitions, bake sales, Fair Trade stalls, campaigning at the Scottish Parliament and much more.

In 2025, priority will be given to projects that aim to ensure widespread awareness of Fair Trade, including awareness of Scotland’s status as a Fair Trade Nation and our collective responsibility in maintaining this status. We’d love to see more awareness raising among younger people that involve innovative ways of promoting the link between Fair Trade, global justice and climate justice.

We have £1,500 available for your projects this year. If you have a Fair Trade project in mind, you could be eligible for up to £250 towards your project costs. The funding awarded at each round will depend on the number of applications we receive.
