Giving and Philanthropy

Help make a lasting difference in Suffolk

Over 3,300 charities, community and voluntary groups work hard every day in local neighbourhoods across Suffolk to tackle issues such as inequality, loneliness, poverty, poor health and well-being, disability and lack of oppportunity.

By giving to Suffolk Community Foundation, you will ensure that these small charities receive the much-needed funding they rely on, to enable them to continue their essential work for the most vulnerable in our communities.

Suffolk Community Foundation connects local, grass-roots causes
with much-needed funds whilst making it simple and effective for
individuals and businesses to be philanthropic and have a genuine
impact in their communities.

I’ve seen first-hand how hard the team at Suffolk Community Foundation work
to support all of their stakeholders and it makes me feel very fortunate
to be part of the same county.
