Who we are
Sarah’s Trust was founded by Sarah, Duchess of York, to reach out to philanthropists and organisations that share her values and desire to drive positive social change. The team brings together an impressive wealth of experience to the charity sector, and the founders of the Trust have previously worked closely together in the field. Together they have created a new initiative designed to bring vital financial support to charities working at community level.
Duchess of York
Founder & Trustee
For over 30 years, the Duchess of York has been committed to supporting children’s causes with a focus on education. She founded Children in Crisis in 1993 to provide education to forgotten children around the world, and the charity has educated over 1.4 million children. The Duchess has travelled the globe to witness the projects first hand and has personally raised significant donations for causes that share her passion for change. The Duchess also champions Humanitas, the Natasha Allergy Research Foundation, Teenage Cancer Trust, Teen Cancer America, Children’s Air Ambulance, the British Heart Foundation, Julia’s House and Key to Freedom. The Duchess’s passion for these causes and people is cemented at the very core of Sarah’s Trust. Her energy and charitable heart will enable Sarah’s Trust to provide vital support to the world’s most forgotten children, and to broaden her support to more charities working in the field.
