Happy Sussex Day! 🌿 Today we celebrate the rich heritage, culture, and community spirit of our county. As a proudly Sussex-based foundation, we're honoured to support local charities that uplift lives across the region. Here's to everything that makes Sussex special!

This #VolunteersWeek, we want to say a special thank you to the small charity leaders we work with, many of whom volunteer their time to set up and run their organisations. They take on big responsibilities, often juggling many roles. Thank you for all you do!

Whatever’s on your mind, big or small, we’re here to listen. 💚 Don’t keep it bottled up—get in touch with Samaritans. Call us anytime on ☎️ 116 123 or email 📧 jo@samaritans.org. #HereToListen #ItsGoodToTalk

Our Saturday youth group have been very busy making soap bars and scrub pots to give as gifts as part of our Crowdfunder campaign. Next week we'll be making different gifts. 😊 #YoungPollinators #Crowdfunder crowdfunder.co.uk/p/community-hu…

Big thanks to the #SmallCharityFriendlyCollective and #gunnercooke for organising and hosting another brilliant annual conference, aimed at Small Charities. We will continue to have several conversations with our partners and our team. . @gunnercooke #SmallCharities

Big change often begins quietly, through a small group with a big idea, rooted in community. We believe in the power of small because with the right nurture, small charities don’t just grow, they become the forest, a living network of support, strength, and belonging. 💚💚

We are delighted that the Pearce Foundation will be taking part again at the Community Works Online Meet the Funder event on Thursday 24th April, 12-2pm.⁠ ⁠⁠ Register here: tickettailor.com/events/communi…

Happy Easter from all of us at the Pearce Foundation! Wishing you a lovely bank holiday weekend. 💛 Here’s to hope, kindness and brighter days ahead!

Did you know? Nearly a third of small charity leaders in England don’t feel supported in their roles. That's why our grant-making approach focuses on listening, learning, and building trusted relationships, so leaders feel seen, heard, and backed every step of the way.

We are looking forward to attending the Small Charity Friendly Conference, 2025. To know more and to register for free: resources.gunnercooke.com/doing-less-not…
