Aviva Foundation
Details
The Aviva Foundation aims to help people and communities feel in control and positive about their financial futures. The Foundation funds charitable, non-profit and social enterprises that aim to improve people’s financial resilience - their ability to cope with money problems.
The Foundation’s current funding priorities are to build understanding and explore alternative solutions that:
- Build financial inclusion
- Strengthen financial wellbeing
- Support strategic initiatives to help individuals and communities to prevent, prepare for, respond to, and recover from financial challenges.
They seek to provide partners with support and security so they can experiment, innovate and try something new to challenge the status quo. This can include:
- Creating and testing new, creative ways to tackle an entrenched or emerging issue relating to the funding priorities
- Investing in approaches which will generate insights for others, with the potential to be replicable and to scale, influencing the way issues are seen and tackled in society
- Forging new coalitions or alliances of diverse partners to address a problem in a different way
- Developing a response that includes a community that have been previously excluded or underrepresented
