New stretch target
With extra financial support, we will expand the use of the kitchens to provide additional cooked food to more vulnerable groups. Kitchens will be made free to other groups supporting homeless people or families living in poverty. We will provide access to wider support services from local charities and Wandsworth Council.
Tooting Community Project begins with a small ambition to support local people at a time of crisis, we have the long-term aim of providing continual support for the community - responding to the needs of people living in poverty, experiencing unemployment or simply needing support.
Tooting Community Projects is 'powered by' Trident Business Centre (TBC). We are a social enterprise with 100% of our profits funding the charitable work of Business Launchpad (BLP).
We are using the resources of TBC (car park, kitchens and meeting rooms) to provide the local community with safe, sanitised and secure spaces to distribute food and essential items to vulnerable groups in Tooting, South West London.
ALL financial donations for this phase will support the purchase of ingredients for cooking, the equipment needed for the safe distribution of food or the purchase of items for those in immediate need.
ALL staff costs have already been covered by TBC / BLP.
In the long-term Tooting Community projects will create other initiatives, in direct response to local community need. This will include support for young people aged 16-30 who will be heavily impacted by the current crisis.
We ask project owners to honour their rewards wherever possible but please note that all pledges are donations and there is no guarantee that you will receive any rewards from the project owner. Please see Crowdfunder's Terms of Use for more information regarding rewards for pledges.
