Urgent appeal: Surviving Winter

Are you a professional advisor with clients who want to give back to their community?

Community Foundations are an efficient and cost-effective resource to help those with the resources to make lasting local impact.

We can support your clients with:

  • Leaving a legacy or gift in their will to create lasting changes through their wills or estates
  • Running a charitable trust
  • Setting up a personal fund or ‘in memorium’ fund
  • Bespoke, expert advice on local philanthropy

“Community Foundations are vital contributors to building social capital. They also play a vital role by providing a platform that enables individuals and firms to invest in their communities. Community Foundations are helping to deliver a more inclusive capitalism, one in which individual virtue and collective prosperity can flourish.”

Mark Carney - Governor of the Bank of England
