Join us in supporting those most in need on our doorstep

Guildford Philanthropy provides grants to charities within the Borough of Guildford that tackle social inequality by focussing on education, employment, carers, skills and social enterprise. These grants enable charities to help those most in need, provide shortfalls when required, and to those providing opportunities and experiences, to broaden horizons, inform and educate.
