How to give | Setting up | Individual | Company | Named | Endowment
Setting up your own charitable fund with the Community Foundation in Wales is a rewarding and exciting way of supporting charitable work in Wales, now or over the longer term.
A fund can be set up in your name, or your company’s name, and
you choose what issues or areas your fund will support.
You can be
involved as much or as little as you wish in allocating grants from
your fund.
A fund gives individuals all the benefits of having a charitable trust,
but removes the burden of appointing trustees, handling investments

You can out-source your charitable giving programme,
safe in the knowledge that grants will reach organisations that can
use the money effectively.
