Help shape the future of philanthropy in Jersey
Jersey Community Foundation is leading work with partners to develop Jersey’s first Philanthropy Policy.
The aim is to create an environment in which philanthropy can have greater impact, making it easier to give, improving understanding of local need and strengthening how philanthropy, government and the charitable sector can work alongside one another.
We are currently consulting on the emerging recommendations and want to hear from a broad range of people across the Island.

New fund creates dedicated way for Islanders to support health in Jersey
Jersey Community Foundation (JCF) has launched a new Island Health Fund, creating a dedicated way for individuals, families, businesses and charitable trusts to support projects that could improve health and wellbeing in Jersey.
The Fund is designed to complement, not replace, Government and publicly funded healthcare. It will provide an additional source of philanthropic funding to enhance services, support innovation and create opportunities to improve health outcomes for Islanders.
Choosing Jersey: philanthropy and giving locally
Jersey has a strong tradition of giving and a vibrant charitable sector. At Jersey Community Foundation, we work with individuals, families, businesses and professional advisers to make it easier to understand local need and give effectively.

How can Jersey make its generosity go further?
Jersey has a strong tradition of giving. People donate money, give their time, share their skills and expertise, and support causes that matter to them.
We also have many of the ingredients needed for a strong philanthropic community: a thriving charitable sector, significant private wealth, an internationally recognised finance industry and trusted institutions.
