Unlocking the power of our community
We’re a community foundation for Kirklees. This means we do things a little differently. By collaborating with local charities and organisations, we can listen to the needs of people in Kirklees, from cost-of-living concerns, to creating green spaces and more. We then distribute funding to local charities and community organisations – for specialist projects, or to just keep the lights on.
Some 2022-23 highlights:
Supported 2,386 vulnerable households impacted by the cost-of-living crisis through local projects
£1,091,158 given to Kirklees charities & organisations
321 grants awarded
We fund local organisations to support the people and environment that make Kirklees so special. By funding small local charities, our funding can reach people that are often missed by larger schemes. Even small donations can go a long way!
Our vision
Every community in Kirklees is thriving, and its people are leading happy, healthy and fulfilled lives. Every donation and grant leaves a legacy that makes a difference for generations to come.
