• Homelessness
  Supporting charities who help people who are homeless, lack stable accommodation or are in insecure or vulnerable housing.  
  
  

• Combatting the effects of deprivation
  Supporting charities who are combatting the effects of deprivation such as food and hygiene poverty, or provide support for vulnerable families.
  
  

• People with a long-term health condition or disability
  Supporting people living with disabilities and long-term health conditions, including helping people manage at home independently.

Funding can contribute towards general running costs, volunteer costs, salaries and project costs.

New match funding partnership: The Philip and Connie Phillips Foundation has launched a new match funding partnership with long-term Kent funder, Colyer-Fergusson Charitable Trust. The match funding covers two of their four priority areas: supporting people who are elderly and isolated and supporting people with a long term health condition or disability. The Foundation’s application process has not changed, you still apply as normal, just be sure to opt-in on the application form to be considered for this opportunity – only if your project falls into the eligible priority areas.
