It takes building a more sustainable future
– for our people and our planet
What makes a community? It’s the people. People who care. People with ideas. People who take the time to look out for one another and look after the places in which they live.
By getting behind small charities and community causes that are taking action in the face of climate change and helping people to take control of their financial wellbeing, we’re building stronger, more supportive communities all across the UK.
The causes we’ve seen make the biggest impact are those that have the freedom to test innovative ideas and explore exciting new opportunities without fear of risk. Ideas like recycling ocean plastic or breaking down barriers to work. That’s why the Aviva Community Fund puts its weight behind these kind of clever ideas through funding, coaching, volunteering and practical guidance.
We open the door to communities and causes all over the UK to share their vision on how to make our world a better place. Our eyes are currently fixed on these two areas:

The Aviva Community Fund delivers funding and support all year-round. Every three months we split £250,000 among our UK employees to donate to the projects that matter to them most.
Applications for eligible causes are open. Through Crowdfunder, causes can add to any donations they get from the Aviva Community Fund with public donations.
Beyond the funding of forward-thinking ideas, we also want to connect all charities with people and resources that can help them thrive. In particular, we’re focused on sharing the experience, skills and enthusiasm within Aviva, to support all charities through free online resources, networking forums, and volunteering. Working together, we can build stronger communities and have a positive impact across the UK.
