Voluntary groups working with disadvantaged children and young people can get their hands on up to £7,000.
The money is being offered by the Local Network Fund and any groups helping under-19s in Essex, Southend or Thurrock can apply.
The closing date is January 31, so money will be available in time for Easter or summer holiday projects.
Potential applicants can discuss their projects with Anita Pratten at the Essex Community Foundation by calling 01245 355947. For an application form call 0845 113 0161.
