You can be confident your money will be used wisely. The money will all go into a restricted fund held on our behalf by The London Community Foundation (registered charity 1091263) the meeting place for many different donors, private and public, with differing interests and areas of concerns. The London Community Foundation has a wealth of experience supporting grassroots groups and charities across the capital.

The London Community Foundation has carried out due diligence checks on all the groups we’re supporting. They will hold the money on our behalf, claim the gift aid where relevant, make the grants to the organisations and will monitor the spending. It receives a 15% contribution to cover its costs.
