Giving to your local community can be a hugely rewarding experience. There is a unique sense of satisfaction in knowing that you are making a difference to the lives of others, especially those close to home.

But with generosity, comes responsibility. The more you give, the more important it is to make informed choices; to ensure that your money achieves maximum impact in areas that matter to you. And that’s harder than ever these days, when there are literally hundreds of charities and community groups all competing for your attention.

If it’s important to you not just to give, but to give effectively, then The Suffolk Foundation is here to help.

To that end, we target grants that make a genuine difference to the lives of Suffolk people. We manage funds donated by individuals and organisations, building endowment, and acting as the vital link between local donors and local needs – connecting people who care with causes that matter.

Importantly, we’re independent. In providing you with expert advice and the benefit of our local knowledge, our only agenda is to ensure that your giving makes a lasting impact, in areas that you care most about.
