UK Community Foundations

Organisations' Council member

UKCF is a national network of community foundations, bringing together people and organisations that want to improve their communities.

Community foundations come in all shapes and sizes, but what they all have in a common is a commitment to making a difference to people’s lives and the places they serve.

Community foundations are local champions, connecting people and organisations that want to improve their communities.

Community foundations invest in local people and organisations tackling the biggest issues facing communities today and supporting some of society’s most disadvantaged people.

Community foundations provide help and advice to those who want to give at the heart of their communities, both now and in the long-term. They match donors and partners to important local causes.
