‘Cork County Council have today been made aware of the ‘Communities Integration Fund 2024’.
This is a fund that is entirely separate from the Local Authority administered Community Recognition Fund 2024.
The fund which is administered by the Department of Children, Equality, Disability, Integration and Youth may be of interest to groups with proposals of smaller projects than those eligible to apply for the CRF24, given that this fund is for projects of €1,000 – €5,000.
The Communities Integration Fund 2024 enables community-based organisations across Ireland to build on their vital work in reaching out to, and helping to integrate migrants into local communities. The fund will support a wide range of community groups working in many ways to help celebrate and support the rich cultural diversity within local communities. Successful organisations will receive grant funding of €1,000 – €5,000 to support local integration initiatives. Closing date is 12pm 8th May.
