Donate to the Richmond upon Thames Voluntary Fund

All the funds raised by the Richmond upon Thames Voluntary Fund will be allocated to the selected charities for 2026/27 based upon their project proposals.

Donation amounts

This is a voluntary scheme, and any amount can be donated.

Any funds raised above what has been requested from the charities will be divided up between them based on their project monitoring and ongoing capacity.

How your donation will be used

Selected charities will deliver programmes that help ensure that children in the borough receive the best start in life.

Funds will be used to support children under the age of five to access high-quality and inclusive early education opportunities that nurture language and communication development, social skills and emotional wellbeing.

Investing in children under five years old can change lives, laying the foundation for future success in school and improving long-term life chances, especially among disadvantaged children.
