The Baring Foundation was set up in 1969
to give money to charities and voluntary organisations pursuing charitable
purposes. In 42 years we have given £102.5 million in grants. Our
budget for grant-making in 2011 is £2.2 million.
We have specific grants programmes concerned
with strengthening the voluntary sector, international development
and the arts. Please
click on this link to find out more about these programmes.
The Joint International Development
programme 2012
The Joint International Development programme 2012, in collaboration
with the John Ellerman Foundation, is open. We are continuing the
theme of improving the effectiveness of NGOs and CBOs in Sub-Saharan
Africa to address problems arising from the long-term forced displacement
of people. Click
on this link to access the guidelines and information about how to
apply.
Strengthening the Voluntary Sector
programme
At the end of 2010 the Foundation agreed a small number of grants
aimed at concluding the five-year independence programme. There will
be no open grant application round in 2011 as the Foundation develops
guidelines for a new STVS programme. These will be published on this
web-site no earlier than April 2012. Please
click on this link for details of the publications
arising out of the STVS programme in recent years.
We are also working on
special initiatives
which include: African diaspora, interculturality
and climate change.

The Baring Archive

acquired Baring Brothers Bank in 1995) and is one of the finest
archives of a financial institution anywhere in the world. There
is a website which provides an introduction to the organisation
and content of the Archive and will enable casual enquirers, historians
and researchers to begin to see and understand the wealth of material
that is held in the Archive. Click
