Endowment Fund

Thanks to a generous donation from the Australian Charity Art Auction in February 2017, and with their encouragement, we have decided to create a new Endowment Fund with an initial deposit of  £10,000.

Establish your legacy by ensuring The Tait Memorial Trust can meet the needs for young Australasian performing artists for generations to come. Your gift to the Endowment Fund will enhance the income that the Fund generates, income that helps us fund studies, pay for instruments and generally support our awardees well into the future.

We have created a new class of patron or supporter whose donations can be directed to building our new endowment fund.

An “Endowment Patron” could be anyone who gives or bequeaths more than, £5,000, and their names would be recorded against the endowment fund in our records.

Tait Endowment Patrons
Earl Cadogan KBE DL
Mrs Karen Goldie-Morrison
The Hon Sarah Joiner
Mrs Anne Longden
Mrs Barbara Ross
Mr Michael Whalley OAM

If you would like to add your name to our roll call of Endowment Patrons by contributing to the fund, or would like to know how a bequest can be used to support it, please email James at:
