The Ayrshire College Foundation exists to support Ayrshire-based projects that provide educational opportunities for all age groups. Allied to the objectives of Ayrshire College, we will consider any project that has a clear educational benefit for Ayrshire communities and employers.

The Trustees welcome applications from organisations and individuals with an educational project that will deliver a measurable impact within a specific timescale. Projects are considered on a quarterly basis but a quicker decision may be possible for time-sensitive projects. Projects should align with the current strategic objectives of Ayrshire College and applicants are strongly advised to consult with the College before submitting an application to the Foundation.
