United Kingdom
RefuAid since 2020
Interest-free
Up to £20,000
The Foundation has worked with RefuAid since 2020 to provide interest-free loans of up to £20,000 for people rebuilding professional pathways in the United Kingdom.
Loans were to support UK accreditation or mandated professional training and, in relevant cases, day-to-day expenses while that process is under way. For refugees, these funds also assisted with day-to-day expenses, with many unable to work until visas are approved. This help ensures that key skills are not put to waste and ultimately lead to people sustainably supporting themselves.
The Foundation has also provided some support to people from underprivileged UK backgrounds. This help ensured they have the ability to reach their full potential. We maintain professional connections and moral support where appropriate.
As loans were repaid, the funds went on to support later recipients.
Support was provided both to refugees in the UK and people from underprivileged UK backgrounds who would not have been able to access opportunities to study and be successful without financial aid.
Support can help people overcome the practical costs of rebuilding professional lives. Contact the foundation to discuss giving or collaboration; this page does not provide loan applications.
