Applications are invited from any football organisation, from senior clubs in the Scottish Premier League to children's teams competing at a local level.

The fund supports projects that advance education within the Falkirk Council area and provide or assist in the provision for recreation and other leisure time occupation for the benefit of the general public.

Every three months, five shortlisted projects will be voted for by John Good Group employees. These five charities will all receive a share of £15,000 – the more votes a cause receives, the bigger the donation.
