Dublin City Council working with community fundraising platform Spacehive, has launched an exciting opportunity for local residents to fundraise and deliver projects that matter to them called Crowdfund Dublin City.
Funding:
Dublin City Council has a fund of €300,000 and is looking to invest in projects that will enhance green spaces, create colourful, vibrant and inclusive public spaces, or support sustainable communities and environmental initiatives.
Through the fund, community groups, social enterprises, local charities and individuals with community support could potentially receive a pledge of up to 50% of their crowdfunding target, capped at €5,000. This contribution from Dublin City Council is pledged directly into your crowdfunding campaign alongside contributions from the community.
