Cardiff City FC Community Foundation is delighted to announce a new charity partnership with Hodge, a financial institution that has been making a positive impact on people’s lives for more than 50 years. This partnership marks an exciting step forward for the Community Foundation as we continue our mission to change lives and transform communities.
Hodge shares our commitment to creating better futures, having supported individuals and businesses alike with a wide range of services, including savings accounts, mortgage solutions, and commercial finance. Their experience in designing simple and effective financial products helps people focus on what truly matters, be it saving for the future, buying a home, or developing property.
The Charity Partnership will enable the delivery of impactful projects supporting people throughout South Wales. This collaboration focuses on helping individuals within Cardiff City FC communities and beyond reach their full potential, while expanding ongoing initiatives.
We're proud that our club changes lives, which would not be possible without the support of our funding providers, supporters, and partners. By partnering with us, your organisation can make an extraordinary impact on our work to change lives and transform communities across South Wales.
Gavin Hawkey, Community Foundation Director, said:
“We’re looking forward to embarking on this journey together with Hodge, and we look forward to working with them to further our shared goal of improving lives”
Charlie Ellaway, Chief People Officer at Hodge, said:
“We’re thrilled to partner with Cardiff City FC Community Foundation. This collaboration perfectly aligns with our core purpose and values of making a positive, lasting impact on our communities. By partnering with Cardiff City FC Foundation, we’re able to extend that commitment further, supporting meaningful initiatives and being present in the moments that matter.”
Our goal is to raise £125k to support the future of Cardiff City FC’s Community Foundation and make a lasting impact on our communities. Engage with us, participate in our events, and help us build a better future for our communities.
