The Fine & Country Foundation was established to provide grants and support for homeless charities in the UK and overseas. Since 2014, a combination of the efforts from Fine & Country agents across the globe and private donations have helped raise £550,000. We believe that, together, we can make a substantial impact to help the most vulnerable people in our society. As a network, we take part in some remarkable efforts, like treks up Mount Kilimanjaro, but we also give back for every Bespoke Marketing Suite we create for our customers, because we value the little things that make a home. For every Bespoke Marketing Suite sold, we will donate £10 to The Foundation.
