Coronavirus Response Fund

The Coronavirus outbreak has had a huge impact on all of us, but it has become apparent that the outlook for most vulnerable members of the community is particularly devastating. To address the many urgent funding requests from charities and community groups locally, we have set up the Coronavirus Response Fund.  

We are urgently seeking contributions to this new Fund to enable us to provide funding to respond to the current situation. The total raised also includes donations received from the National Emergency Trust appeal, who are partnering with Community Foundations across the UK to distribute funds to grassroots initiatives responding to the current situation.

Your donation will allow us to make grants to local organisations who are supporting the most vulnerable and isolated  during this crisis, including older people, people with disabilities or long-term health issues, and families in need. 

While emergency response must be the initial priority, it is also our intent to support vital local groups who are facing significant uncertainty due to loss of funding arising from this current situation. Grants will be made in a timely and responsive manner, whilst ensuring that money is used for the intended purposes.

The Community Foundation for Surrey is a grant-making foundation which inspires local giving for local needs. We award grants to grassroots charities and community groups who make a positive difference in our county. Registered charity no. 1111600.
