We are a grant-giving charity, set up to support and strengthen our local communities. We create grant-giving funds for local families, individuals, companies and agencies, and the public sector.All grants go to local charitable, voluntary and community groups. In villages, towns and cities, people come together to meet local needs and challenges – homelessness, physical and mental health, sports and the arts, poverty and disadvantage, family support, elderly lunch clubs, hospices and much more.Some are quite large charities, others very small. Almost none are household names. Yet between them, and with the help of the generous philanthropic donor funds on our platform, they help keep Leicester, Leicestershire, and Rutland stable and thriving, and great places to live and work for all of us despite the current challenges of the pandemic and rising prices.We are part of a network of 46 Community Foundations across the UK leading the development of support to sustain local communities.
