Manx Telecom relaunches 'It's Our Community' grant scheme
Applications are still open for the first ever Marg McGee Community Awards.
The scheme was formally known as the 'It's Our Community' scheme, but has been renamed in memory of Manx Telecom employee Marg McGee.
Since its inception, the community grant program has supported over 175 initiatives, ranging from the refurbishment of Laxey Working Men's Institute to more recent projects like Isle of Play.
It typically sees grants ranging from £100 to £1000 awarded to local charities by the company.
Kate Hegarty, Group Head of Marketing for Manx Telecom said: "For over 15 years, we've had the privilege of supporting countless initiatives that make a real difference in our society.
"The Marg McGee Community Awards represent not just a continuation of this legacy, but an expansion of our commitment to the Manx community, something championed by Marg throughout her time at Manx Telecom.
"By increasing our annual budget and broadening the scope of our support, we hope to reach and support a greater number of deserving causes and projects around the Isle of Man."
The closing date is 31 October, with awards announced in early December 2024.
