Charitable giving accelerates your ESG journey

Karen Morris of the Community Foundation for Lancashire

Now, more than ever, investors, customers, employees and suppliers are looking to work with businesses who demonstrate strong ESG (Environmental, Social and Governance) credentials.

It’s no longer just about profit. The additional benefits of committing to the development of a robust ESG strategy are many, including improved customer loyalty, competitive advantage, and financial performance.

The Community Foundation for Lancashire is here to support you in meeting your social responsibility objectives, as part of the ‘S’ strand of your ESG journey.

Our team, who are experts in the field of charitable giving, can guide you in the development and delivery of your ESG strategy and objectives, particularly with regard to social and community impact, making it easier to manage and more achievable.

We connect our clients to charities and grass roots community groups who are seeking funding, offering a wealth of experience, knowledge, expertise and bespoke advice. Our aim is to ensure your charitable funding makes a real difference and helps those who need it most.

We work in partnership with you to direct your support, so that it reflects your business values and social and community strategy, providing the necessary evidence on progress and outputs through regular impact reporting.

Working with us, you will be helping to drive as much investment as possible into the voluntary and community sector of Lancashire, in order to enrich the lives of people and grow stronger communities.

We have a number of solutions to suit your social responsibility needs.
