…help build a Legacy Fund for Kingston Until March 31st 2015, The London Community Foundation can offer donors 50% leverage on gifts to the Kingston Legacy Fund. There is £128,702 of match funding available and we need your help to make sure this is secured for Kingston.

The Kingston Legacy Fund is an exciting new way to support the borough long into the future. Until March 31st 2015 we will be able to boost all donations to this Fund by 50% under the Community First programme. Donations are invested as part of an endowed fund and the annual income is used to support charitable activity year on year in our borough. The capital sum continues to grow and provides a long lasting source of support for charities and community organisations. As an individual, group or business, this offers you an excellent opportunity to maximise the impact of your donation and invest in a long term strategy for social change.

Please join us in securing a legacy for Kingston.

The Love Kingston fundraising campaign is part of Kingston Voluntary Action’s (KVA’s) Transforming Kingston’s Infrastructure project, funded by the Big Fund on behalf of the Office for Civil Society. KVA is working in partnership with The London Community Foundation on delivering this campaign. All donations will be made to the Love Kingston campaign at The London Community Foundation. Our vision is of a strong and generous community – where residents, businesses, community groups and government act collectively to create a fair and good society for all who live or work in the borough. It is easy to forget about the thousands of residents left on the margins. Wealth and poverty live side by side, with middle class terraces, green spaces and trendy high streets blending into run-down estates and empty playgrounds. Love Kingston is an exciting new charitable venture responding over time to the changing needs of local people.

a new, simple way to support Kingston

Across the borough, many inspiring organisations run by dedicated individuals achieve extraordinary things with very limited resources. For many of these organisations, the future depends on securing small but vital amounts of funding to reach individuals and communities in need. As the effects of the recession and budget cuts take hold, funding is getting tighter while the need for these services is greater than ever. Love Kingston is supporting five local projects committed to ‘pathways out of poverty’. All charitable groups funded by The London Community Foundation have been assessed and completed a due diligence process.

Oxygen – supports young people from deprived backgrounds Kingston Savers – a Credit Union for local residents
