Story

Thank you for visiting the International Service Alumni Small Grants Fund fundraising page!

Our Alumni Board will be running the York 10k on 3rd August and in the month running up to the day - we want YOU to help us train AND raise money for the Small Grants Fund at the same time.

We want to challenge ALL International Service Alumni, friends and family to #GoTheDistance! How many miles can you run, walk, swim, or cycle throughout the month of July? You can do as little or as much as you want.  Challenge yourself to change your world, and see how far you can go.

We want to see if we can log enough miles collectively to virtually take us around the World and visit all of the International Service ICS projects. That’s more than 17,000kms!

To take part, donate £2 to this page and then email alumni@internationalservice.org.uk and we’ll get in touch to let you know the details.

All of your donation will go to the Alumni Small Grants Fund which supports our projects in Bolivia, Burkina Faso, Ghana, and Palestine.  See below for more information.

What is the Alumni Small Grants Fund?

Would you like to give back to your project partner? Help them further their objectives and continue to support them even after you have returned home? The International Service Alumni Board, a collection of 10 recently returned ICS volunteers, have set up a Small Grants Fund to do just this!

The fund will support our project partners with one-off grants of up to £250. Small projects may include one-off purchases, start-up costs for new ventures of project partners or awareness-raising events. These small projects should be designed to enhance and enrich the work of the project partners and should provide benefits for the wider community.

Your donation will make a real difference to the work of our project partners and volunteers; supporting some of the most marginalized communities in the world in Bolivia, Burkina Faso, Palestine and Ghana.

All funds donated to this page will go directly into the International Service Alumni Small Grants Fund to be awarded to our project partners.
