CharityConnect: Newbie needing funds!
Hi Folks
By way of a short intro, I co-founded Seedcorn Foundation last year having identified a gap in the enterprise Education space that needed filling, particularly around Primary Schools, where Enterprise appears to be directly linked to selling cakes! - Seedcorn Foundation Programme is e-commerce based, digitally relevant and flexible to be timetabled within school. Many months of research has got us to this point along the way, we have managed to secure enough funding to write the programme and polish it so it is 'teacher-ready' and launch a pilot in our first school.. 
We ae now in a position where everyone we talk to about funding is saying "great programme, get some data and come back and talk to us' - which is fine, but how do we fund this? The initial funding will run out before the next academic years starts, so any help or advice as to who we should be talking to would be amazing..
We do have some 'big business' contacts, but they want data... So I guess this is mainly around grant funding..So we can continue the journey..
Many thanks for taking the time to read this through..
I am all ears.. or should that be eyes??
Best wishes
Jeremy
