WCIT is a charitable organisation that aims to use the power of technology for impact through digital inclusion, education, charitable, and public engagement initiatives.

Through its IT4 Good Grants Programme it is providing grants of up to £15,000 for educational establishments and not-for-profit organisations to support IT projects and activities. Funding will support activities within the themes of education, inclusion, IT for charities, and understanding of IT, such as the development and delivery of new services, solutions, training, apps, analytics, AI, robotics, or accessibility features/hardware.

Projects that are more likely to be funded include:

  • Projects where WCIT is a material or sole funder.
  • Projects where WCIT is the sole funder of the IT component of a larger project.
  • Organisations that could benefit from pro-bono support.

Proposals should demonstrate an innovative use of IT, be scalable for wider replication, and be sustainable over time. Grants of over £15,000 may be considered in exceptional circumstances.

The next deadline for applications is 31 October 2024
