The ForceSelect Foundation is a registered charity established to provide support for Britain's ex-service men and women by helping smaller service charities during these difficult economic times. The ForceSelect Foundation was the brainchild of Hugh Andrée who, after setting up ForceSelect, a recruitment agency finding employment for service leavers, realised that there was a need to put somethin
g back into the charities who do so much for our ex-servicemen and women. This money will be pooled and smaller service charities will be invited to make applications for grants. The Foundation's aim is to support smaller service charities at a time when they are finding survival in the current economic situation incredibly difficult. There are service charities helping veterans from the Second World War through to the current conflict in Afghanistan and many need external assistance to continue their wonderful work. The ForceSelect Foundation will use its expertise and contacts to help charities who may not be in a position to fundraise with such intensity and diversification. The Foundation hopes to build long term relationships with as many of these charities as possible and there will be opportunities for repeat grants.
