About the Trust

The Garrett Riggleman Trust is a Private Ancillary Fund donating to
humanitarian, artistic, and educational charities working for the common good

The Trust was founded in 2007 by John Garrett in memory of his father Allen G. Garrett and his father-in-law Leonard Riggleman. The purpose of the Trust is to perpetuate their memory by investing part of their financial legacy and donating the proceeds to humanitarian, artistic and educational causes with which they would have identified.

We support a range of charitable institutions through a targeted giving program. As a private ancillary fund under Australian law, we can only support registered charities which are themselves deductible gift recipients. Each year, we give to selected organisations which in our view are best equipped to further the charitable aims of the Trust.

We regret that we cannot respond to unsolicited requests for funding.

The Trust is a charity registered with the Australian Charities and Not-for-profits Commission.
