Money For Life - Community Challenge Application Form

Thank you for your interest in entering the Money for Life Community Challenge 2018.

The Money for Life Community Challenge is a UK-wide competition to find the most innovative and impactful ways young people can share their money management skills with friends, family and those who really need them.

We’re offering a £400 grant to teams of young people to design and deliver their very own social action project tackling a money issue in their community. Once you’re project is complete, you’ll receive a further £200 for your project report AND the chance to represent your region at this year’s National Awards ceremony in London!

Before you begin make sure you have the following:

A team - with 4-10 people the majority aged 16-25 and a youth organisation to support you
A project idea – that tackles a money issue in the community for a specific audience
A plan – what do you want to achieve and how will you achieve it
A budget – letting us know how you’ll spend your grant
A time frame – letting us know when the project will take place and completed
