Supporting local causes that matter

Hertfordshire Community Foundation is an independent charity which encourages local philanthropy. We provide advice and giving options for donors which we transform into funding and support for small charities, voluntary groups and individuals in Hertfordshire. By making local giving easy we strengthen our local communities and improve the lives of vulnerable people.

Surviving winter appeal

This winter is going to be exceptionally tough for many local people, especially for those facing food and fuel poverty or feeling isolated. Our surviving winter appeal is raising money to help Hertfordshire’s most vulnerable residents to stay warm, safe and well.

Coronavirus Relief Fund

The Hertfordshire Coronavirus Relief Fund brings together those wishing to give with those providing positive solutions in our local communities. All funds raised will help meet the increased demand on local charities and voluntary organisations that are assisting Hertfordshire's most vulnerable people right now.
