Set up your own fund
A fund at Nottinghamshire Community Foundation works just like a charitable trust; it allows your company to support issues and areas of your choice but saves you all the trouble of appointing trustees, handling investment and dealing with the paper work. Your fund retains its individual identity within our overall portfolio. By making grants into local communities it demonstrates your company's commitment to the local people.
