Midas are sharing some news and tips on trusts with UK Fundraising, garnered while
developing their Big Gift fundraising training course.
Ian Kerr of Midas reports
that the Rigby Foundation (number 1011259) seems to be holding balances of £250,000
as income is greatly exceeding expenditure.

The Joanna Trollope Trust has been wound up.

The Football Foundation gives away over £50 million a year to the sport but is unpublished
as a grant giver. Possibly this is because it is only supporting football in the
widest sense but its grants include community education, building projects etc.
