The South Yorkshire Community Foundation helps improve the lives of local people living in disadvantaged communities. SYCF is a registered charity established in 1986 and created for and by the people of Barnsley, Doncaster, Rotherham and Sheffield. We connect people who care to causes that matter...

Surviving Winter: The South Yorkshire Community Foundation has launched the Surviving Winter Appeal, to encourage people to make donations to help older and vulnerable people affected by fuel poverty this winter.

The campaign was originally inspired by individuals who wanted to donate their Winter Fuel Payment from the government to support older and vulnerable people who are less fortunate than themselves, but is open to anyone who can afford to donate and would like to contribute.

The South Yorkshire Community Foundation will work with local partner organisations with a track record of supporting older people who will proactively find those in the area who are most in need.

I Love South Yorkshire is a campaign to encourage local people to work together to tackle the issues that matter most in local communities.

Donations will be used to support our work with community and voluntary groups in South Yorkshire who are best placed at tackling local issues.

You can support causes that matter most in your area, as there are separate I Love campaigns for Barnsley, Doncaster, Rotherham, Sheffield and South Yorkshire.

The I Love campaign gives businesses and individuals the opportunity to make a real difference to the area by tackling local issues at a grassroots level. In addition to donating money we will encourage businesses and individuals to think innovatively about how they can provide assistance to communities in need.

This might include a business providing a team to assist with a community project, providing spare meeting rooms for groups or assisting a group with book keeping.
