Members include John Lewis, Natwest and Cardiff University.<\/p>\n\n\n<p>The project, which helps those experiencing or at risk of homelessness, cost \u00a313,520 to set up. At the end of October, total donations were \u00a314,729.60.&nbsp; &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n<p>However, \u00a35,000 of this total came from Cardiff Council when the scheme was launched in March 2018.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n<p>FOR Cardiff met the scheme\u2019s start-up, as well as all administrative costs themselves, so that 100% of donations go to the fund. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n<p>Adrian Field, Executive Director of FOR Cardiff said: \u201cWe believe contactless payment and the means by which we can support people will get them away from homelessness quicker by providing grants which give them an opportunity to get back into the workplace.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n<p>Donations are passed on to the Community Foundation for Wales who manage the fund. So far 35 grants have been awarded to help pay for items such as ID, furniture and vocational training.
