Tailor your local philanthropy to your personal interests or those of your family. Through a bespoke named fund, legacy or portfolio of giving, we can help you bring your commitment to Oxfordshire alive.
Personal giving
We help you give in a way that works for you and your family. Whether you would like to make an instant impact on a particular issue, or need support with a lifelong giving plan, we are here to help you fulfil your philanthropic ambitions.
Through our extensive local charitable networks, we can reach under-the-radar community groups and projects, as well as some you might already know. We have relationships with hundreds of organisations creating a positive difference in Oxfordshire, and we can help match your interests with needs on the ground.
Below are some options for how exactly to direct your personal giving, but please feel free to contact our Head of Development Kate Parrinder for a private discussion.

Friends
Support us in a simple but effective way by contributing discretionary funds of £250 per year. By making your yearly Friends donation, you will be joining a group of motivated people who are passionate about supporting Oxfordshire communities.
Patrons
Empower us to nurture thriving communities across Oxfordshire. Patrons empower us and the charities we support by committing to a substantial unrestricted gift for three years or more, helping us to fund our value-added grant-making and donor-care services.
Named fund
Setting up a named fund with OCF is a simple, robust, and impactful alternative to setting up your own foundation or charitable trust. Benefit from OCF's governance and operational resources, and be guided by our knowledge of and connections with the local charitable sector.
Legacies
Through planned giving, you can ensure your charitable bequests continue to support the causes that matter most to you, beyond your lifetime. We can help you decide how you want to be remembered and the impact you will make.
