The Football Foundation provides funding for grass roots and community and education projects. The grass roots funding stream primarily supports organisations who wish to build, develop or refurbish facilities in order to increase or sustain participation.

The maximum grant available is £1 million or up to 90 per cent of project costs. The average level of support is 65 per cent. Community funding may include community coaching schemes, study support centres, anti-crime initiatives, Football in the Community schemes and social inclusion projects.

Comunication and education grants are available up to a maximum of £250,000 and can be for a period of up to five years. Again the percentage level of support varies taking account of need and can be up to 90 per cent.
