  .
• Local Businesses, such as banks, real estate companies, service and industrial companies, etc., and local subsidiaries or partners of multinational corporations.
  .
• Local Independent Foundations and Trusts, such as the Tsao Foundation (Singapore), Fundação Vitae (Brazil), Fundación Amparo (Mexico), Fundación Social (Colombia); CP Foundation (Thai), and the Kagiso Trust (South Africa).

Such foundations are dedicated to addressing critical societal needs and on improving the quality of life of specific segments of a community in a limited geographic area. Examples of such foundations include: the Kenya Community Development Foundation (Kenya), the Community Development Foundation (Mozambique), Oaxaca Community Foundation (Mexico), the Rustenberg Community Foundation, (South Africa), and the Healthy City Community Foundation (Slovak Republic).
