About Us

The Cornwall Community Foundation supports communities in Cornwall and The Isles of Scilly by providing small grants to grassroots projects, initiatives, and groups that are making a positive impact in their local areas, seeking to address challenges of exclusion and inequality for people of all ages.

In 1999 a group of philanthropists established the Cornwall Independent Trust, with the aim of supporting individuals in the community who were striving to find self-reliance, and funding philanthropic opportunities for their benefit in Cornwall and The Isles of Scilly. In 2003 the Trust evolved into the Cornwall Community Foundation (CCF), committed to carrying out this work and enabling progress through grant-making that is fair and responsive; promoting diversity and inclusion. CCF have distributed over £20m to the community over 21 years, reaching more than 8,000 groups in Cornwall and The Isles of Scilly.

As a foundation, we have the responsibility and privilege of working to address the root causes of the issues faced by communities and individuals, in order to make a lasting impact on their lives. We understand the importance of funding to support grassroots projects, initiatives, and groups – making a real difference to the well-being of people throughout Cornwall.

As a charitable organisation, we rely on your donations to support our mission and we strive to enhance our ability to provide grants for community and individual projects in Cornwall.
