Quick Summary

Whether you have an established CSR plan and team or are newer to the field, we can offer you a simple, flexible and effective way of making a difference in your community. 

In detail

Whilst companies work with us for a number of reasons, the majority use LCF to reach smaller charities and community projects that struggle to compete for funding amongst the big high profile names. You may have a CSR team already but could use help in the delivery of grants (especially small ones) which can be time consuming and difficult without the knowledge of and networks into a community. Or with limited staff resource in this area, you might be looking for someone who can supplement the largely voluntary effort of your employees. Either way we can help. Our corporate partners include Land Securities, Deutsche Bank, Man Group plc Charitable Trust, New Covent Garden Market Authority, Rolls Royce, Anglo American Foundation and many more.

Company ‘Donor Advised Funds Plus’ start at £25,000 and allow you to create a bespoke community investment programme which matches your interests with needs on the ground. Or from £5,000 you can choose the Donor Advised Fund which allows you to support your favourite existing charities as well as a range of grassroots projects recommended by us. Companies can also become members of our 500 for London initiative.

If you wish to give nationally, we would be happy to structure a grants programme through our membership body, the UK-wide Community Foundation Network
