Supporting real change in the community

The John and Myriam Wylie Foundation provides financial and non-financial support for worthy and well-run organisations in all walks of life, especially in education and selected community interests. We have to date supported over 100 organisations and causes. The Foundation aims to assist deserving organisations in meaningful ways over and above pure financial support.

“We aim to make an impact,
not a statement.”

The Foundation aspires:
  • To invest in well-run organisations and social enterprises which can make a real difference to worthy causes; and
  • To reinvest in the communities which have benefited both John and Myriam and their family and the external directors of the JAMWF.
 

Our charities

We invest in organisations with a clear culture of mission, outcomes, cost-effectiveness and transparency, in areas where there is a real need. We like organisations that consider us financial partners and investors, rather than passive donors.
