Through the grants made by the fund, we create life-changing connections between people who would not normally meet. For example, a grant to the Ark T Centre in 2016 enabled a project bringing together vulnerable young women at risk of exploitation with older women living in sheltered housing with similar experiences. Other projects range from intercultural events and exhibitions to initiatives bringing together people from different socio-economic backgrounds. Some previously funded projects are shown in the images below. For every donation made to the fund, OCF will match fund it pound for pound, up to a total of £25,000.    (This match funding will be added weekly in the offline donations, as the funds are received by OCF)
