Thanking you all

We’ve all got someone to say thanks to this year. Whether it’s the neighbours for checking we were okay, the delivery drivers who kept food on the shelves, the volunteers who helped deliver food or vaccines.

The team here at Foundation wants to thank all of you for everything you've done to support Scotland's communities throughout the most testing times. 

Firstly, we'd like to thank our donors. The continued generosity of the many organisations and individuals we work with enables us to support so many grassroots organisations and services working in the very heart of Scotland's communities.

We want to thank all the third sector heroes who have worked tirelessly throughout the pandemic to keep their communities connected, to deliver vital services, supplies, and much needed support.

Finally, we'd like to thank our team, who rose to the challenge of managing our busiest period of grantmaking since the Foundation launched 25 years ago. 

To mark this national day of appreciation we've put together some short videos highlighting how grateful we are to everyone who supports our work. Please watch the messages below from our staff, trustees and a small selection of grantees.
