Charities are under more pressure than ever, and businesses have an important role to play in supporting them, says Milton Keynes Community Foundation.
Business Membership offers a practical way for organisations to give back. Through an annual donation, businesses choose one of the Foundation’s key cause areas. Funding is then directed to local projects where it is needed most.
With a deep understanding of the challenges facing Milton Keynes, the Foundation ensures support reaches grassroots groups and charities working on the front line.
By joining, businesses become part of a collective effort to support Milton Keynes at a time when help is urgently needed. EMW Law is the latest organisation to join this commitment.
“Joining Milton Keynes Community Foundation felt like a natural step for EMW. Its work is rooted in local insight, and by supporting the Poverty & Disadvantage Fund we know our contribution is going where it can make a real difference," says James Geary, Partner atEMW Law As a B Corp, we’re committed to playing our part in addressing social challenges, and tackling disadvantage and poverty locally is a responsibility we take seriously.”
The Poverty & Disadvantage Fund focuses on people and families facing hardship across Milton Keynes. As demand grows for food support, crisis help and essential financial assistance, targeted funding is more important than ever.
“It’s fantastic that James, Angela and the team at EMW Law have decided to join and support the MK Community Foundation as a Business Member," added Damon Fox, Philanthropy Manager at MK Community Foundation, "We are excited to see where the partnership takes us. It fills me with pride that they have chosen us to help support impactful projects and charities over the next year.”
