Management of Independent Charitable Trusts
Mary Grave Trust
The Mary Grave Trust was established in the 1970s and distributes more than £50,000 each year in travel bursaries to young people from low income families in West Cumbria.
The trust is now administered by the Foundation. We promote the Trust throughout the area of benefit, prepare the accounts, assess applications, complete returns to the Charity Commission and present grant applications to the Trustees for decisions. Trustees retain involvement in decision-making and policy setting.
Pat Black, Chair of the Trust, said "This new partnership with Cumbria Community Foundation has enabled us to reach out to a wider audience, and to give out more grants to more young people."
