Charitable Donations
Funding for the common good
Clydesdale Bank has a long tradition of providing funds that help external organisations to make life safer, healthier and better for all of us.
Over the past year, we have given donations to a number of organisations to support a variety of causes. In each case the money we provided has helped the organisation either to improve the service it already provides or to kick start a specific new initiative.
How you can bid for our help
If your organisation would like to be considered for support there is no application form to complete. All we ask is that you send us a short letter setting out the following:
- a brief description and history of your organisation
- confirmation of its charitable or not-for-profit status
- how your organisation is funded
- annual report/review and accounts
- how you plan to use the funds for which you are applying
Areas we can’t help with
Please note that at a corporate level we do not normally support:
- activities taking place outside our natural marketing area
- individuals and individual fundraisers
- capital projects
- salary expenses
- third party fundraising (i.e. advertising in charity programmes or gala fundraising events)
- political or religious organisations
Please note that Clydesdale Bank receives a significant volume of requests and we are therefore unable to accommodate them all, no matter how much we might wish to do so. In view of the volume, we also regret that we are unable to discuss requests by telephone.
