"I was inspired by the foundations commitment to recognizing hard work. Many individuals from ethnic minority backgrounds excel in various industries but often go unnoticed. The community foundation acknowledges their contributions and provides the recognition they truly deserve."

“I really enjoy studying here! The teacher is friendly, supportive, and always willing to help. I have learned a lot and gained more confidence in my studies. A big thank you to The Community Foundation for supporting us and giving us this wonderful opportunity! “

“Strong communities are safe communities, and I love coming together with kind-hearted people who share the same goal of building solid, protected, and connected neighbourhoods. It feels like we are slowly and consistently winning back something long lost in our society, and I am thrilled to be a part of it.”

"I just would like to thank you for a super night on Friday, myself and my team really enjoyed the event. It was amazing to hear the amount of people that were nominated and a very proud moment for myself and the team to be the winner in the Health and Wellbeing section, it means a lot to us to receive this award."

“I truly appreciate the time, trust, and guidance given by Nozmul throughout my time at Community Foundation. He has been a great person to work with and for, and I’ve really valued the experience I’ve gained in researching project ideas and writing project proposals. I very much enjoyed my time with the Community Foundation and wish you and the organisation every success in your future endeavours. Thank you again for all your support."

“I would like to sincerely thank you, Nozmul, and the entire team for the opportunity to work with the organisation. The experience, guidance, and support I received were extremely valuable and have contributed positively to my professional development.

I have genuinely enjoyed being part of the team and hope to stay in touch. I wish the organisation continued success in all its future projects.”

“My mum told me about the Community Foundation programme and told me this would be good for me.
I attended the Hatch Programme, and my experience was good because I had learnt a few skills.
I have gained confidence and also new skills I need to know in a job. I know how to make  a CV. I enjoyed the whole thing because it wasn’t boring, we had fun activities and it was fun."

"Really happy with my child's progress and how far they have come, also how the teachers have the 1-1 with the children. Good reports for my daughter and son."

“We had such a blast at the family retreat! The wonderful staff, the good-hearted families involved, and the fun activities, are all now part of a priceless memory we will always share as a family. It helped us both bond with each other and with nature and gave us a refreshing break from the needs and routine of everyday life. Such a great experience!"

"I found Community Foundation through a traineeship- I completed my work experience element through Community Foundation for 3 months. All the staff are lovely. Community Foundation helped me grow in confidence with answering telephone calls and greeting visitors. Thank you, Community Foundation.
