This is amazing!  I really don’t know what to say.  It will help my son to pursue his career without the worry of how he’s getting to college.

Thank you so much for your generous funding of our trip to Hay Festival…it meant that we could take extra staff to take some of the pressure off crowd-managing the students.  We were able to take nearly 90 students and they described it as  ‘the best day ever!’.

Thank you so much for the geo laptop, we have set it up and used it at our warm space cafe today. I’ve helped a parishioner with his online banking and another to apply for their blue badge. It was such a help.

Our client was really blown away by the support. He feels like a weight has been lifted. His neighbour, who picks up food for him, says he looks 10 years younger because of the easing of stress by the fuel grant.

We are so grateful for Herefordshire Community Foundation’s generosity. The team shelters, or dugouts, give the facility a much more professional look and give players and coaches a space to keep equipment dry and safe from the elements. Each shelter is also an area for a team to be managed at the start and end of each session, thereby providing a space to consolidate learning and make sure practical sessions become more meaningful.

I am writing to thank you for your very generous support of £1,081 to fund the work of the Ormiston Families’ YouCanBe project in Norwich. We are incredibly grateful for your support, which will make a huge difference to the lives of the young women we work with to improve their self-esteem, relationships, and sexual and reproductive health.
