About this fund

With a clear purpose to ‘create prosperity for generations,’ building and maintaining positive relationships with the local community is fundamental to the success of Port of Aberdeen.

We support with local charities and community group to provide project funding, as well as support with time, resources, or equipment, to help those most in need.

We have established four multi-year strategic charity partnerships, which aim to deepen our impact and foster strong, long-term collaborative relationships with charities to create significant, sustainable social impact, and deliver mutually beneficial initiatives.

We will also support colleagues with raising funds for charity and community projects, as well as addressing ad hoc requests that we receive from charities and community groups across Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire.

Looking for support with funding?

Identifying funding opportunities and writing grant applications can seem overwhelming, especially when the future sustainability of your group is dependent on gaining funding support. 

Our supportive Funding Officer, Claire Shaw, can help your organisation with every step of the funding application process, from carrying out funding searches to proofreading your application.
