By supporting The Community Foundation for Ireland you join our mission to ensure that no person or community is left behind, on the fringes, or isolated. Every community should be judged by how its most vulnerable are treated. This is why you are joining a Foundation committed to equality and inclusion. Read more about these funds below or get in touch for more information.
LGBTI+ Fund: For 21-years we have campaigned side by side with LBTI+ advocates. You will be joining donors who gave the first contribution to Marriage Equality. There is still much work to do. Young LGBTI+ people still report bullying, homophobia in the workplace and trans-rights are still not delivered. In a world where the community is facing new threats, discrimination and hatred – you will be an ally. Join a movement determined to build on the progress that has already been made. Read more about how we are supporting LGBTI+ communities in Ireland.
Racial Justice Fund: Immigration laws, access to education, training and work, and discrimination are challenges our immigrant and Traveller communities face every day. You will be joining donors with a clear vision of what equality looks like. From reform of family reunification laws to the first-ever legal service for Travellers, we deliver real reforms. Support this fund to improve people’s daily lives and allow them to become active members of Irish society. Read more about how our funds are supporting ethnic minorities in Ireland.
Covid 19 Response Fund: Covid-19 shows that emergencies can arise which require an immediate response. You will be supporting frontline partners who are agile and able to adapt and respond when the need arises. During Covid-19 our funders quickly responded to ensure meals on wheels, mental health and wellbeing and other lifeline support continued. Together we put in place a digital infrastructure for services. Enabling communities to continue during Covid and to be better prepared when disruption happens again. Over €9 million has been invested to date. Read more about how we are helping communities respond to Covid 19.
