As an independent grant maker, GiveBradford is the place for giving in Bradford and we’re building a movement. Working collaboratively with leaders, community organisations and donors, we’re strengthening the future of our communities, building a fairer Bradford for everyone.

GiveBradford nurtures strong relationships, connects resources, and possesses a deep understanding of communities across the district. We put local people at the heart of our decision-making, so funds are distributed fairly to often marginalised groups that contribute to making Bradford the remarkable place it is.

Investing through GiveBradford allows people and businesses to collaboratively contribute to strengthening Bradford’s communities. It represents more than just economic and charitable growth; it signifies investing in a place with an unwavering spirit, a rich cultural tapestry, and boundless potential for positive change. Together, we’re building a fairer future for everyone.

GiveBradford (managed by Leeds Community Foundation & Bradford District Community Foundation) are responsible for raising 100% of our core costs. Accordingly, we need to ensure that we cover all our overheads including the costs of governance and of advising and administering any funds. We take a management contribution on all funds managed by the Foundation which is re-invested in staff time to run our efficient and effective grant programmes, conduct full due diligence, and provide practical support and advice to local community projects.
