About Community Foundation Ireland
| As a philanthropic hub, we believe strategic giving has the power to create meaningful change and achieve our mission of Equality for All in Thriving Communities.
Community Foundation Ireland plays a vital role in promoting positive social change and community development throughout the country by connecting donors with local causes and effectively managing charitable resources. We take an inclusive holistic approach to delivering impact across four key areas, which reflect both long-standing and emerging challenges: — Sustainable Futures places Community Foundation Ireland as leaders on biodiversity and climate-action, working in partnership with communities as well as Government to address the biggest challenges of all. — We nurture Inclusive Communities where everyone is respected and has the opportunity to contribute and thrive. — We Empower Generations to ensure everyone is heard and respected irrespective of age. — Accelerating Change sees us working with change-makers to overcome systematic and societal barriers to equality and fairness.
It serves as a philanthropic hub for Ireland which is a source of knowledge, expertise and information to ensure effective and strategic giving and serves as a resource for individuals, families, and organisations to establish funds or contribute to existing funds with specific charitable goals.
Established in 2000, Community Foundation Ireland has grown significantly, with over €100m in donations in the past 5 years and an ambitious plan for growth by 2030.
