About Jvenn Foundation

The JVenn Foundation is a registered charity established in 2015, dedicated to advancing education and social mobility for disadvantaged young people in Hull. Led by a small board of trustees, it focuses on identifying potential, fostering aspiration, and building long-term relationships through rigorous governance and evidence-based support. The Foundation combines individual bursaries with funding for school enrichment projects, emphasising literature, writing, and broader disciplines. It supports Hull residents pursuing first undergraduate or tertiary qualifications at UK institutions, prioritising financial need. The Foundation also funds extra-curricular projects in Hull schools and community groups, covering science, mathematics, technology, humanities, arts, literature, and career development to enhance educational engagement among local youth. A distinctive feature is its focus on Hull-based individuals and grassroots initiatives, with organisational funding appearing invite-only.
