Everyone has a role to play in helping Suffolk grow – in making this a stronger community and an even better place to live. Our role is to help you. Suffolk Community Foundation is making a lasting difference to the lives of people in Suffolk by connecting people who need help with those who are willing to give. We assist individuals, families and businesses with their local charitable giving and award grants to a range of charities and community groups that reach people in need throughout Suffolk. Our work spans every corner of the county; the grants we award supports a huge range of local projects such as relieving rural isolation for older people, creating opportunities for young people or providing vital equipment for community centres – all projects where a relatively small amount of money can make a big difference. People who want to give to the communities they live and work in often find it difficult to know where to direct their donations effectively. That’s where we can help. Being a local team, we have the experience and knowledge of local needs and so can help donors target their giving precisely to the problems they want to solve. By taking a targeted approach, you can really see the lasting difference your generosity makes. We see charitable gifts as investments in the future of Suffolk. Thanks to the generosity of our donors, the Foundation has awarded over £9 million to more than 2,000 charitable organisations across Suffolk over the past nine years. We currently manage over 60 charitable funds, totalling over £7.5 million in endowed assets. As a member of UK Community Foundations (which represents 48 independent community foundations operating across the UK) we are collectively one of the fastest growing UK-wide funders of local charities and voluntary organisations. We know your local community is important to you. Let’s make it better together.
