Our Unique Role in Funding a Fairer Milton Keynes

In today’s business landscape, Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) has become an essential component for companies aiming to build trust and maintain a positive reputation within their local communities.

Over the years, businesses have been encouraged to integrate CSR initiatives into their core strategies, but today, they’re a crucial part of sustainable business growth.

62% of the public expect businesses to deliver social good in local communities.*

Despite wanting to give back and make a difference, many businesses often feel unsure about where to start with their charitable giving. To genuinely implement these initiatives can be challenging, and even daunting, without the right guidance and resources.

At MK Community Foundation, we use our deep knowledge of Milton Keynes to help individuals and businesses give back with purpose and support grassroot groups through to larger charities alike. Our expertise ensures that funding is fairly distributed across the city's charities and community groups, maximizing the impact of your generosity in the communities where you and your employees live and work.

Our annual Vital Signs MK report offers insights into the specific needs and challenges facing Milton Keynes charities and community organisations, allowing businesses like yours to send your support to where it's needed most.

 

What giving options are available?

 

We understand that every business is unique, and so are its charitable objectives, and we work hard to offer a range of giving options that suit different needs:

  • Business Membership: This involves an annual donation that supports targeted community projects. Each membership will be directed to support the causes closest to you and your employees' hearts.

  • Flowthrough Funds: Donations aligned with a company’s values, fully distributed within a financial year. This method provides immediate impact, allowing businesses to see the results of their generosity quickly.

  • Endowment Funds: Long-term investments that provide sustainable funding for local causes. By creating an endowment, businesses can ensure their charitable giving continues to make a difference year after year, providing stability and growth for community projects.
