Grants Up For Grabs: December 2016 Roundup Part 2

We're giving more grants than ever to help local projects, charities and community initiatives. Take a look at some of the great projects that have recently been completed with HIPPO's help, in the words of the people we've helped. To learn more about the scheme, visit the Grants Up for Grabs page.

OAkley Allotment keepers

"Thank you for the Hippobag which you supplied to Oakley Allotment Keepers, free of charge, through your Grants for Grabs scheme recently. What a fantastic way for a business to support local communities!"

Newham Community Renewal Programme

"Thank you so much to Hippo for the free Hippo bag for our charity.  Having the bag was a great incentive to have a proper sort through our junk and we are now going to use the space we have cleared as a classroom to give our tenants advice on job search and life skills.

University of Chichester

"We are five, third year trainee teachers at the University of Chichester who are ‘making a change to educational society’.

The HIPPO bag has supported us with our project, developing a mud kitchen in St James’ School, Coldwaltham. The outdoor area which we are developing was full of soil, rubble and garden waste, which we needed to clear prior to starting with the building. Without the generous support of HIPPO we would have really struggled to clear and remove the waste.

We are now ready to progress with our project and create a mud kitchen for the pupils in the school. We would really like to thank HIPPO for their generous grant."
