About us
Who we are
Somerset Community Foundation is an award-winning and Quality Accredited member of a growing national and international movement of Community Foundations. We were established sixteen years ago to promote philanthropy and fund local organisations making a difference throughout our county.
We want Somerset to be a county of vibrant, inclusive communities where charities, voluntary organisations and social enterprises thrive, transforming and enhancing the lives of the most disadvantaged people.
Our role is to be the catalyst for inspirational philanthropy for Somerset, providing a simpler and more effective way for donors to make a lasting difference through community investment and leadership.
Somerset is a wonderful county to grow up, live and work in. However, a significant minority, often hidden from view, face considerable challenges in their lives. We believe that philanthropy will have an increasingly important role to play in reducing inequality and increasing access to opportunities for healthier and more fulfilling lives. We will build on our experience and expertise to help fulfil that potential.
