Community Impact
In order to improve the lives of Barbadians, the BCF has identified three priority areas. By focusing our general funding in these key areas, we intend to have the greatest impact in the short and long term.
Helping Children Thrive
• Educational supports, such as: textbooks, uniforms, breakfast programs, and remedial classes
• Parenting skills training and support
• Emotional/social skills development and conflict resolution for youth
Creating Economic Sustainability
• Blue economy and environmental sustainability projects
• Entrepreneurial development initiatives
• Skilled trades and emerging technologies training programs
Supporting those with chronic illness
• Medical needs grants
• Practical and rehabilitative supports for those managing chronic illness
