Thriving communities are always looking at ways to support the next generation and Clann Credo helps them to do this. We have set up a designated ‘€5m Community Youth Loan Fund’ to help make a bigger community impact.
Clann Credo is Ireland’s leading Community Loan Finance provider and we have loaned over €90 million to over 900 projects nationwide, empowering, revitalising and transforming communities by providing valuable jobs, facilities and services.
We have provided over €3 million in community loans to youth groups around the country. The range of youth groups we support include: scout groups; youth clubs and cafes; youth theatre groups; Youth development groups; youth music groups and Lions Clubs.
Some of the projects we support include: 14 Clare Scout Group; Carrigaline Lions Youth Project; Carndonagh Youth Club; Dublin Youth Theatre; Dungarvan Scouts; Rathmore Youth Group; Ballinlough Youth Café; Balla National School; 24th Galway Sea Scouts; Drogheda Youth Development and many more.
As well as providing youth projects with community loan finance, we have also support young people by providing community loan finance to sports clubs as well as community centres, which are great facilities for young people.
Unlike traditional lenders, Clann Credo takes account of the impact your project will have on your community.
We NEVER ask your or your volunteers for personal guarantees and there are no application forms to fill in.
Clann Credo’s regional representatives have decades of experience working with youth groups around the country.
