npower Business Solutions Foundation boosts funding to £10 million for local causes

npower Business Solutions (nBS) has announced an additional £5 million investment in its community fund, the nBS Foundation, bringing the total amount to £10 million. This commitment is aimed at supporting not-for-profit organisations in Yorkshire, a key region for the energy provider.

Launched in 2024, the nBS Foundation provides grants of up to £100,000 to organisations located within 50 miles of Leeds and Dewsbury. The foundation has already funded 43 local projects, including those addressing domestic abuse, sustainability initiatives such as solar panel installations, and support for electric vehicle programmes. The fund focuses on empowering organisations that seek to drive long-term positive change in their communities.

The additional £5 million will further assist projects dedicated to sustainability, job creation, and social innovation. Organisations interested in receiving support can submit applications through Charis Grants, an independent entity that manages the allocation process.
