SYCF and community foundations across the country are working with the National Emergencies Trust (NET) to make sure resources reach the community groups and charities which are already doing incredible work to save lives and relieve hardship in the present situation.

All donations raised through the Community Foundations own COVID-19 Response Fund along with funds made available for distribution in South Yorkshire through the National Emergencies Trusts appeal will support community and voluntary organisations that are assisting some of South Yorkshires most vulnerable people.

The funds aims and priorities are to support community organisations that are working to ease the immediate difficulties communities are facing and to support their recovery in the coming weeks and months. This includes charities, voluntary groups and social enterprises.
