Helping you
support your community, the Community Foundation offers a wealth of experience,
knowledge, expertise and bespoke advice to ensure that your giving has the
greatest impact where it is most needed.
Since 2007, we
have distributed in excess of £12 million to charities and community groups in
Lancashire. Our knowledge of the sector allows us to find and reach charities
in our community, including lesser-known charities operating at a grassroots
level, ensuring charitable awards create lasting change.
We work as part of
a national network of 46 UK Community Foundations that undertake a strategic
and robust grant making service, which contributes to achieving maximum impact
in local communities.
We help individuals, families,
companies, charitable trusts, public sector bodies and organisations such as
Comic Relief, the Big Lottery Fund and John Laing, connect, support and invest
in Lancashire’s communities through charitable giving.
We provide sound
management, due diligence and administration support services to make
charitable giving easy, tax-efficient and robust. We offer our clients
independent and professional advice on charitable giving, linking them to
exceptional charities that are seeking funding.
Our ultimate
vision is to drive as much investment as we can into the voluntary and
community sector of Lancashire to enrich the lives of people and grow stronger
communities together.
