GRAPEVINE: Children and Youth Funds pay tribute to 14 valuable projects

Social Innovation Fund Ireland has praised the 14 charitable groups awarded supports worth €9.5m under the Children and Youth Education Fund.

The volunteers in the 14 groups raised 50% of the €9.5m in funds, with the other 50% supported by the Government of Ireland, through the Dormant Accounts Fund. The aim of this fund is to improve access to higher and further education for students who are affected by disability or disadvantage.
