Phuket Community Foundation

The work of the PCF now features in an article in the website of a major international philanthropic organisation, the Charles Stewart Mott Foundation.

Established 84 years ago, the Michigan-based Mott Foundation aims to strengthen local communities anywhere in the world, reasoning that “strong, self-reliant individuals are essential to a well-functioning society. Moreover, individuals have a critical role to play in shaping their surroundings.

“There is a fundamental need to promote the social, economic and political empowerment of all individuals. All individuals should have the right to work and pay their own way, the right to an education, the right to better themselves, and the right to a clean and healthy environment.

“Therein, society must respect individual, human and civil rights, and those rights should be protected by law,” the Foundation’s website stresses.

The Mott Foundation is already a major financial supporter of the PCF, and the PCF features in an article in its website about the work of the Global Fund for Community Foundations (GFCF), another major supporter of the PCF.
