Citipointe Foundation

To Bring Hope and Provide Support

The Citipointe Foundation was established in 2006 to bring hope and provide support for humanitarian causes, people experiencing hardship, distress or injustice and advancement in education.

The Foundation, which provides funds to various deductible gift recipients (DGRs), is presided over by the Board of Trustees who ensure accountable management of funds and appropriate governance.

Through the generosity of donors, the Foundation, since its inception, has provided over $14.5 million to organisations with an average of 4.5% administration expenses (2.2% over the last decade), with 92% of gifts distributed and 3.5% reserved as capital which is invested for the future.
