Lush Charity Pot – average grant £2,000 – £4,000
Lush distributes grants, to groups working in the areas of:
- Animal Protection
- Environment
- Human Rights (incl. social justice, peace & equality)
Charity Pot grants range from £100, up to a maximum of £10,000 per project/application. The average Charity Pot grant is between £2,000 – £4,000. It is unusual to award the maximum of £10,000, as this reduces the range of projects that can be supported.
Charity Pot grants prioritise projects that aim to create long-term change – because it’s crucially important to fund projects that aim to prevent and address the root cause of the problem.
