This should benefit up to 20 regional bureaux, meaning that around 25,000 more people will receive support and advice on how to manage their money. The bank has been supporting Citizens Advice for over 20 years.   Bureaux across the network in England and Wales will be invited by Citizens Advice to apply for funding for existing projects or to set-up new financial capability training initiatives. ## Advertisement [⌊Posthub advert.

This donation will allow many of our bureaux across the network to continue their training programmes and also enable others, who are not already involved, to do so.”   This year Santander’s Community programme will contribute over £6 million to good causes around the UK.   www.santanderfoundation.org.uk   * **[North Face creates fund for outdoor youth organisations](https://fundraising.co.uk/2011/06/21/north-face-creates-fund-outdoor-youth-organisations/)**( 21 June 2011) * **[British Airways’ Flying Start raises £1.3 million for Comic Relief in first year](https://fundraising.co.uk/2011/06/24/british-airways039-flying-start-raises-13m-comic-relief-first-year/)**( 24 June 2011) * **[Applications open for Barclaycard's lone parent education programme](https://fundraising.co.uk/2011/07/01/applications-open-barclaycard039s-lone-parent-education-programme/)**( 1 July 2011)
