The August Foundation

The Talent Tap is a social mobility charity that supports ambitious students from under-represented rural and coastal communities by providing mentoring, work experience, and access to professional networks, helping to unlock career opportunities that might otherwise be out of reach.

The August Foundation contributes annual funding alongside volunteering our time to support this mission.

Our team has conducted mock interviews with candidates and will host internships for participants of The Talent Tap’s Emerging Talent Programme in Summer 2025.

This partnership reflects our belief in breaking down barriers to opportunity and building a more equitable future. We’re committed to deepening our involvement through ongoing volunteering, engagement, and support for the young people that The Talent Tap serves.

Soup Kitchen London is a central London charity providing hot meals, mental health support, and a welcoming community space for people experiencing homelessness and hardship.

In addition to financial support from The August Foundation, our team regularly volunteers their time, helping to prepare and serve food, clean up, and support the charity’s dedicated staff.

With nearly 200 guests served each day, the charity relies heavily on volunteers, and we are proud to contribute both our time and resources to their vital work.

This partnership reflects our commitment to supporting our local community in practical, meaningful ways, and we look forward to expanding our involvement in the months and years ahead.
