Fund a specific project

RedR welcomes specific project funding from the corporate sector to help us develop and deliver additional programmes of work.  

For instance, since 2019 RedR UK has been offering an innovative training programme on Climate Change Adaptation and Disaster Risk Reduction to participants in climate-vulnerable communities across Asia and East Africa. This programme has been fully funded by AXA XL. Our courses currently focus on Bangladesh, the Philippines, and East Africa. All are climate-vulnerable regions with existing mechanisms for CCA and DRR, but face challenges in connecting the two at local levels. We are seeking for funding from other companies to expand the programme to other vulnerable regions, such as the Caribbean or Southern Africa.

This is just one example of many opportunities for project specific funding. If you would like to find out more, please contact our fundraising team at fundraising@redr.org.uk.

I just wanted to say thank you to everyone for making me feel very welcome and for allowing me the opportunity to volunteer and learn from you all. It was a truly great experience and I’m definitely looking forward to volunteering again!
