Jersey Community Fund

The Jersey Community Fund is the Foundation's main Themed Fund that pools donations from a number of donors, including funds from Dormant Bank Accounts. Grants are allocated to impactful local charitable organisations and community groups to address issues and needs identified within the local community, provided there is clear evidence of community need. Priority is given to projects that align with the Foundation's main funding priorities including healthy living, mental health, care for an ageing population, community inclusion/inequality, and cost of living impact. The funding focuses on prevention while recognizing the need for immediate impact funding. Part of the grant can be used to support the resilience and sustainability of community organizations, including core organisational costs. Applications can be considered for any charitable purpose focusing on current needs in Jersey, though capital projects are typically not supported.
