About the Jester Foundation
Jester Foundation (formally, the Jester 003 Charitable Trust) is a registered New Zealand charitable trust. It was founded by Richard Abbott and Gill Newland on the 5th August, 2009.
The foundation donates to social ventures that improve the lives of the world's poorest and most vulnerable people.
We support initiatives that maximize the humanitarian impact of every dollar spent.
We look for outstanding leadership and compelling evidence of a venture's impact. We make unrestricted donations to support social ventures' sustainable, long-term growth.
The trustees draw upon the work of Jasmine Social Investments to make their donation decisions.
