About Us
Background
In the 1990s the Goedgedacht Trust, working in the West Coast since 1992, identified a need for a local organisation that could play a role in the West Coast region by supporting the myriad local initiatives at grassroots level that aimed to improve the quality of life of vulnerable members of the community.
What we do
The WCCF gives grants to local good causes that make a real difference to the lives of the most vulnerable sectors of our community. This is made possible by our generous donors who enabled the Foundation to start the grant making programme in 2005 and to continue to build up our training programmes which strengthen and empower local community organisations in their work.
Why a community foundation?
Community foundations are local organisations dedicated to strengthening local communities in the geographic areas in which they operate, in order to make a difference to the lives of local people especially vulnerable people. Community foundations manage funds donated by individuals and organisations,
