The Gisela Graham Foundation is a small grant-making charity which reflects the wishes and support of the proprietor, the well known home decoration and gift designer Gisela Graham, and of the Foundation's trustees. Its funding comes from Gisela Graham Limited.
The Foundation’s grant-making priorities are:
o To promote the advancement of health, through research and treatment, in areas such as cancer, dementia and generic mental disabilities.
o To promote and support the benefit of adults with learning disabilities, and contribute towards the provision of property for the accommodation of such adults.
o To promote the benefit of homeless people and, in particular, the young, to help them become self-sufficient.
o To provide for the education and care of children in the less developed countries and to support their families through UK registered charities.
o To provide donations to corporate bodies concerned with the propagation of performing arts, and in particular, concerned with training and equipping young performers and artists, and
o To support any charity or other recognised body, which has similar objectives to the above.
Grants are usually up to £6,000 for UK registered charities. There is no specific requirement for matched funding
