West Dunbartonshire Council Community Grants Programme

The West Dunbartonshire Council Community Chest grants programme is facilitated independently and FREE of charge by WDCVS a West Dunbartonshire Community Planning Partner

Who can apply:

• Any not-for-profit community or voluntary organisation which has a current constitution,
  bank account and has/agrees to have its accounts independently examined annually.

All grants made through the Community Grants Service must bring about benefits for those
who live or work in West Dunbartonshire and should address an area of the WDC Corporate
Plan and/or the WD Community Plan.

Applications may cover:

• Start-up costs
• Project costs
• Salaries
• Capital and equipment costs
• General running costs

While grants of up to 100% of total cost may be made, WDC is committed to increasing
the level of external funding which comes into the area. Please consider seeking a
proportion of the costs from other funders or from your own fundraising. West Dunbartonshire
CVS will assist you to do this.

What cannot be funded:

• Costs already incurred
• Activities designed to promote religion or which require people to participate
  in religion in order to benefit
• Uniformed organisations
