About

The Mark Lindgren Memorial Fund

is a small grant-giving charity which very much reflects how Mark’s family and friends remember him and his outlook on life. Mark died in March 1999 at the age of 23, killed in Uganda.

He was just stepping out in life and the Fund seeks to support young people who are starting their life’s journey.

The Fund was set up by Mark’s family in his name in 2000, to help young people at schools and universities who want to fulfil their individual aims but for various reasons cannot afford to. For information on how to apply for a grant, please click here

As a guide to the kinds of project we support, we have included details of some of the projects undertaken by young people who have received grants from us in the last 11 years. Please click here for details.
