Community Foundation for Surrey

Our
Approach

The Community Foundation movement is based on the concept of “local help for local needs”, and highlights empowering and inspiring charities or groups to donors looking to support organisations in their area.

Jamma wholeheartedly supports the Community Foundation for Surrey (CFS) in bringing local donors together with those who are providing solutions to challenges in local communities. Grants are directed towards tackling and solving identified needs, with the funding allowing promising ideas to transform into successful realities. CFS has awarded over £15 million across Surrey to promising community initiatives in the last fifteen years.

Jamma's support focuses on mental wellbeing projects in Surrey, as well as a Coronavirus Response Fund that has awarded £3 million in grants towards groups addressing problems such as loneliness, domestic abuse, food security, and vulnerable individuals and families in 2020.

Examples include ‘Friends of the Elderly’, where funding is helping isolated elderly people pay for their groceries safely with wireless card readers, and ‘South West Surrey Domestic Abuse Service’, who received funding to help support children with feelings of isolation and stress through online sessions.

The Community Foundation for Surrey is a movement connecting local philanthropists with charitable organisations that help change the lives of disadvantaged individuals.
