Support for the sick or handicapped

Do you have an illness or handicap, or do you know someone who could use a little help? There is support for regular and alternative medical care, rehabilitation, recreation, treatment-related traveling, medical aid, and education for people with handicaps. It doesn't have to be a severe illness. With a doctor's certificate, a mild handicap or allergy can also strengthen your application for an educational scholarship.

Support for the needy

A long time before the social welfare workers ever saw the light of day there has been support for the financially needy. If you end up 'in a pinch' because you are living with a single parent or in a family that just can not financially afford to assist you, you can seek aid. Other reasons for support are social problems, illnesses or handicaps. You can use the money towards clothes, rent, home furnishing, household appliances, and renovations.

Money for projects, schools, unions, and organizations

There are allowances for projects, schools, hospitals, and organizations. Now that the state's and municipalities ability to provide support seems to be diminishing, an alternative financing may exist for different philanthropic, helthcare,, international, or cultural activities. If you need money for new projects, investments, staff education, or just for regular work there is a great chance to receive support from different international funds. We have knowledge about funds that, together, hand out billions yearly. This is not pocket change!!!

Yes, many receive money and all grants you receive are both free from taxes and do not need to be paid back. Women, men, young and old people and children can find funds. Healthy, sick, poor, rich, single parents, unemployed, employed, entrepreneurs, schools and organizations can get support.

What are scholarships and funds?

A fund or a foundation (in U.K. charity) is created when a donor hands over a sum of money or other assets to a specific board to distribute. Each year the money is to be handed out to the cause that the donor had decided. The person or organization that distributes the fund must follow the rules that were put in place at the birth of the fund.

The board is intended to help in situations that the state or municipality does not consider themselves able to assist. Funds and foundations are often created for moral reasons, but also for tax reasons. Money that the donator puts into the fund is tax-free, as long as the main part of those funds profits are distributed. The funds must hand out money because of this, or they risk being taxed as punishment. The fund managers would much rather give the money to you than to the state, so send in your applications!!!
