| The Community Foundation in Wales promotes the cause of philanthropy in Wales by creating and managing relationships between donors and those who are running
life-enhancing initiatives.
We are dedicated to strengthening local communities by providing a permanent source of funding, building endowment and ‘immediate impact’ funds to link donors to local needs. Our philanthropy advice and grant-making services are valued by individuals and families, businesses, and grant-making trusts within and outside Wales. Our clients and supporters include the Welsh Assembly Government, the Charity Commission in Wales, the Big Lottery Fund, and the BBC’s Comic and Sport Relief Programmes. | |
