Open Data
County Durham Community Foundation is committed to transparency and we work with 360Giving to publish information about our grants.
Using the 360Giving data standard, our awarded grants to groups can be viewed as Excel spreadsheets: COVID-19 Emergency grants here
Between 1st April 2020 and 31st March 2021 we awarded 1,253 grants to groups and individuals totalling £4,945,774. These can be viewed below.
We believe that with better information, grant makers can be more effective and strategic decision makers. 360Giving provides support for grant makers to publish their grants data openly, to understand their data, and to use the data to create online tools that make grant making more effective.
