Adobe Launches Adobe Community Fund Across Berkshire and London

Facilitated by the Adobe Foundation, this new initiative aims to bridge the digital divide, particularly in communities where access to technology is limited. In London, the fund will support local residents who are deaf or living with disabilities and boost social inclusion through creative and digital opportunities.

In Berkshire, it will address the needs of local people who are deaf or are living with a disability, as well as children, women, and global majority residents to boost social inclusion through creative and digital opportunities.

The Adobe Community Fund will support 19 local non-profits in London and Berkshire with a strong track record of empowering communities, including those in Islington where Adobe’s London office is based, and 16.3% of the population live with disabilities.

Suzanne Steele, Vice President and Managing Director, Adobe UK, Ireland, Middle East, and Africa said: “Our core mission is driven by the belief that technology should be a force for good. It’s about equipping people with the tools to tell their stories, shape their futures, and create real change. Through the nonprofits supported through the Adobe Community Fund, we hope to help people across London and Berkshire access the services they need and the opportunities they deserve. Our goal is simple: to make sure everyone, no matter their background or circumstance, has the chance to unlock their full potential”.

Paul Buchanan, Chief Executive of the London Community Foundation said: “This is an extremely exciting partnership and one I cannot wait to get rolling. This support from the Adobe Foundation will help more people in our local London communities amplify their voice, express their creativity, and partake in opportunities that wouldn’t have been available to them previously”.
