Greenham Trust’s 48-hour summer “Double Matched Day”

Applications to apply for Double Matched Day June 2021, are now closed. The finalists will be announced Thursday 27th May.

24 March 2021 – Today, applications open for Greenham Trust’s Double Matched Day where every pound donated will be trebled by matched funding. From 00:01 on Friday 18th June to 23:59 on Saturday 19th June 2021, charitable organisations will have the chance to treble up to £5,000 of all monies they raise through donations and fundraising activities during this 48-hour period, to a total of £15,000. The deadline for applications is 5pm on Friday 14th May.

This is the third Double Matched Day run by Greenham Trust and, following the resounding success of the two in 2020, this one will run for two days! This will give the selected charities even more time to get the most out of their fundraising.

With up to £50,000 to be awarded to up to five charities area on the day (with a limit of £10,000 of matched funds per fundraising project), this is a valuable opportunity for communities and charities to turn each £1 donated into £3.

To be eligible for consideration, the charitable organisations must:

  1. Be within Greenham Trust’s area of funding in West Berkshire and north Hampshire
  2. Have a new live project on The Good Exchange by 5pm on Friday 14th May
  3. The project must require a minimum of £15,000 in funding
  4. Send an email to: events@greenhamtrust.com (including your fundraising plan for the day)

 Projects need to be new applications on The Good Exchange which have not yet received any funding offers from Greenham Trust. However, the charitable organisation may have received funding for a different project in the past and may have received funding offers for other live projects.

Successful applicants will be notified by close of business on Friday 21st May. Full terms and conditions will be available here https://greenhamtrust.com/double/

The Christmas Double Matched Day supported such charities as Sebastian’s Action Trust to help families caring for seriously ill children, Fair Close Centre to enable the continuation of 6 days a week support for the over 65’s, and Pamber Heath Memorial Hall to renovate and expand its hall for the community.
