This guide will help you talk about Kent Community Foundation’s funding in a way that celebrates impact and partnership.
We’re proud to work alongside incredible charities and community groups across Kent and Medway. When you share news about your grant, we want it to feel positive, inclusive, and focused on the difference it makes for local people.
This guide will help you talk about Kent Community Foundation’s funding in a way that celebrates impact and partnership.
When mentioning your grant, highlight what it enables you to do. For example:
What will change because of this funding?
Who will benefit and how?
Why does this matter for your community?
Example:
“Thanks to funding from Kent Community Foundation, we can run weekly sessions for young carers, giving them a safe space to connect and relax.”
Please refer to us as Kent Community Foundation (not abbreviations like KCF). This helps people recognise who we are and find us easily online.
“Kent Community Foundation partners with individuals, businesses, trusts and foundations to fund and strengthen grassroots organisations creating positive change across Kent and Medway. By putting local people and community groups at the heart of everything they do, they help communities to thrive — now and for the future.”
If you’re posting on social media or writing an update, include a photo (with consent) or a short quote from someone who benefits. This makes your story relatable and inspiring.

Our donors are an essential part of the story. They make this funding possible, and we want to acknowledge their generosity in a way that feels respectful and inclusive, while keeping the spotlight on the positive change happening in communities.
Mention donors as part of a partnership and focus on the impact their support creates, not just the donation itself:
“With support from Kent Community Foundation and Port of Dover Community Fund, we’re reaching more local people and helping them to thrive.”
“With thanks to Kent Community Foundation and Crown Charitable Fund for supporting this project in our community.”
“Huge thanks to Kent Community Foundation and Albert Burns Children’s Trust Fund for helping us continue this vital work.”
