Our Charitable Work
Charitable action lies at the heart of our Society, it defines who we are. We are deeply committed to supporting not-for-profit initiatives that strengthen the relationship between the UK and Chile while responding to urgent social and cultural needs
Our work is guided by two core objectives:
-
To help those experiencing hardship or distress in Chile, promoting understanding of Chile in the UK.
-
To promote Chilean artistic and literary talent, made possible through the generosity of the Alan Macdonald Endowment Fund.
Where the money goes
Over the years, we have awarded grants to a wide range of organisations across Chile, supporting projects that deliver meaningful impact. These initiatives help those who most need it in Chile, from providing essential care for children with cancer to offering vital support services for some of the most marginalised communities. Through the Alan Macdonald fund, we have also enabled Chilean music, theatre, film, and literature to reach British audiences. In times of national crisis in Chile, the Society has mobilised additional resources through special appeals, including those launched in response to the devastating earthquake of 2010 and the catastrophic wildfires of 2016.
