Voluntary and Community Sector Membership
Membership gives you the opportunity to voice concerns and influence the Foundation's grant making policies and programmes.
Members are our 'eyes and ears' in the community, alerting us to emerging need and making suggestions for how we can develop our work. For organisations to be eligible for membership they must have charitable objects and work wholly or partly in Cumbria. Annual membership costs £15. The Community Foundation is managed by a committee of Trustees which are drawn from across Cumbria. Three Trustee positions are reserved for and elected from voluntary and community sector members.
Members of the Community Foundation receive an invitation to attend our Annual meeting, and publications outlining our grants schemes such as our Newsletter and Annual Review.
You:
- can know that you are helping to improve the quality of community life for the people of Cumbria
- have the opportunity to contribute information about specific community needs and issues
- receive regular newsletters and annual reviews detailing our work
- receive an invitation to attend and vote at our annual meeting
- receive invitations to special events
Minimum annual subscriptions rates are £15
