Harwich Haven Authority has two community funds, which were established in 2018. The expected grant giving potential of both funds over a five year period will be approximately £290,000.

A yearly fund of £50,000 is managed by the Essex Community Foundation and is intended to benefit communities located in the immediate area of Harwich and Dovercourt.

A second yearly fund of £25,000 is managed by the Suffolk Community Foundation and is intended to benefit initiatives on the Suffolk side of the Rivers Orwell and Stour.

Harwich Haven Authority also makes a yearly contribution of £5,000 to the Port Community Fund, which is managed by the Suffolk Community Foundation.
