The purpose of the scheme of grants to voluntary organisations administered by my Department is to give support to voluntary organisations undertaking projects in the social services area. Under the scheme a sum of £750,000 was made available this year for once-off grants for particular projects being undertaken by such organisations. In addition there was special allocations of £100,000 to the St. Vincent de Paul Society for Personal Development and Home Management courses for some 5,000 families and £50,000 under a pilot scheme for grants to voluntary organisations providing opportunities for unemployed people to become involved in their activities.
The vast bulk of the grants under the scheme are paid to organisations providing services in local communities, including services for women, parents and children and in other cases the projects involved would indirectly benefit these categories. A full list of the grants allocated to date in 1988 under the scheme is attached.
Of the 68 organisations affiliated to the Council for the Status of Women a number have received grants in previous years for particular projects. In 1988 one such group, the National Association of Widows in Ireland, received a grant of £1,500 for the publication of a report.
