The One Foundation in Ireland has opened up its grant giving to support organisations
and groups who promote the inclusion of minority children and young people into 
the on-going activities of child and youth-serving organisations. The One Foundation
previously sought out organisations to support.

The One Foundation’s mission over 10 years is to improve the lives of vulnerable
people – children, minority communities and people with mental health problems -
in Ireland. It has also supported programmes in Vietnam.

This is first time One have offered this type of grant and they feel it is an opportunity
to gather learning and knowledge on best practices to support and enable equal access
for minority children and young people. This fund can be used to address this issue
where ever an organisation is currently at and to help organisations get where they
want to be in terms of developing projects, programmes or an intercultural policy.
