Application guidance — from the funder’s own website

• How to apply: The Mainstay Foundation provides funding to support the religious, educational, and developmental needs of Shia Ithna Ashari communities. Through our funding programmes – such as scholarships, centre support, and religious aid grants – we aim to strengthen faith, expand access to knowledge, and enable sustainable community growth.
• What they don’t fund: Applications from individuals applying for a second undergraduate or postgraduate degree or those individuals who have secured other external funding or who are eligible for student finance will not usually be considered.

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 (no individually listed grants). 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].
