Youth Trust

The Trust is pleased to announce that we will shortly be re-launching the Crystal Palace Youth Trust, a small charity set up in 1994. It was based on a model pioneered by Surrey County Cricket Club and its main object is to encourage sporting activity among young people in the local area. For this purpose the charity has several grants available. While not limited to football, the intention is to prioritise grants that encourage participation and development in football. A typical grant would be between £50 (e.g. to help a disadvantaged youngster get kit he/she couldn’t otherwise afford) up to around £400 (e.g. to help sponsor a youth tournament, local league or the development of a new team).

If you know of anyone or any organisation that might want to apply then the Youth Trust can be contacted via this website. (It should be noted that the Youth Trust and CPST are separate organisations but have common trustees/directors)

 

The Youth Trust is pleased to announce that we are sponsoring two football based projects in the borough during the school summer holidays. Further information will follow shortly.
