Angela joins pressing cause
An experienced charity fundraiser has joined Quartet Community Foundation as its new philanthropy executive for B&NES.
Angela Emms will work alongside Claire Wynne Hughes in Quartet’s Bath office in Northgate House.
These two part-time team members will continue Quartet’s work connecting B&NES based philanthropists with local charitable causes.
Angela Emms went into charity work after she graduated from the University of Bath.
She said: “It’s so exciting to join Quartet as they celebrate a recordbreaking year for grant-making.
“Looking at how local organisations respond to and recover from the impact of the Covid-19 crisis means the need for philanthropic funds to support our small, local causes has never been more pressing.
“I’m fortunate to know many local charities through the Bath Fundraisers group and I look forward to meeting many more and being the bridge to our wonderful fund holders in the B&NES area.”
Quartet works with local philanthropists to support the network of charitable causes across the West of England. Last year they awarded 984 grants worth over £3.9m to small, local causes.
