Funding Allocations 2011

June 17, 2011

The Teen Spirit Foundation is pleased to announce it will be supporting Company B at the Belvoir St Theatre, the Incite Youth Arts programme, the Inspire Foundation and the Midnight Basketball Programme this year.

While having funded all of these organisations or projects previously, we are pleased to see growth and development in all of these examples and opportunities for them to maximise their effectiveness and reach.

This was a particularly difficult funding round given the calibre of projects requiring funding. Thank you to everyone who applied, and apologies to those who were not successful.

Keep up the good work!


Thanks

The Teen Spirit Foundation would like to thank Anna la Grassa and Norma Burrows for their contributions to the foundation. We are unfortunately farewelling Anna and Norma as they will no longer be sitting on the advisory board but we'd like to wish them both all the best in the future.

Thanks and best wishes!
