‘Make it Grow’ is an exciting new initiative aimed at challenging the next generation of business leaders, whilst engaging young people all aspects of learning and developing, including mathematics, literacy, team-working, business skills, leadership and organisation, whilst raising funds for your organisation.

The ‘Make it Grow’ competition challenges teams of young people (5 – 18years) to generate a small business they can run in their local community. The project encourages teams to develop an idea and a business plan to make a £50 grant grow. Teams must then implement their plan and work as a team to make the £50 in to as much money as possible. The deadline date is Friday 2 November, so get your applications in ASAP!!!

Completed applications and business plans can be submitted to emma@cffc or kerry@cffc.co.uk. Alternatively they can be sent through the post to: Community Foundation for Calderdale, The 1855 Building (First Floor), Discovery Road, Halifax, HX1 2NG
