The Innholders' Charitable Foundation	FY2023	£45k	Total support given by the Foundation for the Innholder Scholarship Programme (Note: This is the Foundation's own expenditure, not a grant to an external institution. However, the prompt asks for grants MADE BY this charity. The text says 'total support given by the Innholders Foundation... was approximately £45,000'. This is internal allocation/expenditure. The recipients are students, not institutions. The prompt asks for grants to institutions/organisations. The students are beneficiaries. The institutions mentioned in the scholarship section are Cranfield and Cornell, but the grant is paid to the Foundation to cover costs. I will exclude this as it is not a grant paid to an external institution, but rather the Foundation's own program cost. Wait, looking at the other entries, the Foundation pays grants TO organisations. For the scholarship, the Foundation pays the costs directly or reimburses. It is not a grant to Cranfield/Cornell. So I will exclude the £45,000.

About this data

This grant list is extracted by automated reading of the grant-maker’s own accounts PDFs as filed with the Charity Commission, and cross-checked against the accounts’ stated grant totals (listed sum 602168 vs reference 517791 (16.3% diff; ref=stated)). Recipients are linked to register entries only on an exact charity-number or unambiguous exact-name match. If you represent this funder or a recipient and want a correction, email [email protected].

Grants marked “Unverified read” were flagged by automated checks as possibly misread from the filed accounts. They stay in the list and the CSV (read_status column) but are left out of the totals, counts and recipient tallies this site computes.
