About This Funder

Rangers Charity Foundation SCIO, established in 2002 by Rangers Football Club, embodies the club's longstanding charitable ethos as a force for good, showing compassion to those in need, tackling social inequalities, and creating life-changing opportunities for all ages to build healthier, fairer, and more inclusive communities. Rooted in values of solidarity, inclusivity, and transformation, it operates across seven pillars—Potential, Healthy Lives, A Better World, Dreams, Giving, Everyone And Anyone, and Our Local Community—leveraging the club's profile, supporters, and resources for maximum impact through direct programmes, partnerships, and in-kind giving.

It prioritises employability and life skills for disadvantaged youth (especially care-experienced or ex-offenders via 'Towards New Futures'), mental health initiatives (e.g., Team Talk for men, trauma counselling), education attainment, poverty alleviation, disability inclusion, health projects (e.g., Football Fans in Training), and community wellbeing. Beneficiaries include children, young people, economically/socially disadvantaged groups, those with ill-health or disabilities, veterans, and homeless individuals, with a focus on Glasgow/West Scotland but extending across Scotland and select international causes via partners like UNICEF, Glasgow Children’s Hospital Charity, and Simon Community Scotland. Over £6 million donated lifetime, supporting 23 active initiatives for 7,400+ participants annually.

Eligible entities are UK-registered charities and community groups of any size/income, with no geographic restrictions but preference for Scotland-based work; unsolicited cash grant applications are not accepted—strategic partners selected internally. In-kind support (tickets, merchandise, experiences valued £100–thousands) is available rolling via online form or letter (response ~14 days); no open cash/core funding, only collaborative project grants for pre-selected partners (tens/hundreds of thousands). Distinctive for its football-club integration, flexible rapid-response model, trauma-informed partnerships, and emphasis on measurable resilience-building, it stands out among UK sports-linked foundations.
