First Steps, First Donation

1995: First Steps, First Donation

With the aim to help build a stronger Aotearoa supporting whānau, community and the environment, for generations to come – The Tindall Foundation paid its first donation in 1995. Starting from a small Takapuna office with one staff member they began responding to a steady flow of small funding requests. In February, the first donation was made to Auckland Teacher’s College for: $2,326

“When we established the Foundation, we had no idea what to expect. We knew we would have substantial funds to give away, but we did not anticipate the form that that would take.” – Stephen & Margaret Tindall
