Business for Good Fund
Bringing businesses together to drive real change across Herefordshire
Business Giving Made Easy
The Business for Good Fund is a new way for businesses to manage their charitable giving and make a difference across the county.
What’s the idea?
It’s simple. Businesses each donate £10 per member of staff per year to the Business for Good Fund.
By coming together to give, the business community will create a valuable fund to support good causes across the county.
It’s hassle-free as Herefordshire Community Foundation will manage the Fund. You’ll receive regular updates and there’s opportunities to get more involved, such as joining the grants award decision-making panel.
Who can take part?
Companies of all shapes and sizes are invited to join, from sole traders and SMEs through to larger corporations.
