The Dunnet
Foundation

Community is important to us and we wish to play our part.
The Dunnet Foundation is a philanthropic organisation established in 2019 with the aim of providing positive financial, social change and hope for those within our community who are less fortunate.

The Dunnet Foundation serves as a vehicle that contributes to lifting vulnerable people out of poverty and create vital, healthy, and happy lives for those who show potential and are determined to improve their situation.

Our Mission

As a non-profit organisation, our mission is to provide support for young people in overcoming hardship, and a practical means to empower aspiring young students who wish to follow their dreams, achieve their full potential, and seek to be future leaders.

Our Vision

Our vision is for the Foundation to serve as a vehicle that contributes to lifting vulnerable people out of poverty and create vital, healthy, and happy lives for those who show potential and are determined to improve their situation.

Our Plans

The Foundation aims to assist across the community by providing support in a number of key areas including, but not limited to:

Easing the financial burden for talented young people wishing to pursue higher education.

Assisting single mothers who are seeking help in providing for their children.

Contributing funding for community-based sustainability projects.

Providing community-based grants to assist young people battling poverty, addiction and homelessness.

Social Enterprise
