The Pipe Family Global Impact Foundation was created In honour of our parents: Ken, Jo, Ron and Margaret
... As a gift for our children Laura, Katie and Jonathan and their husbands and wives Sam, Nathan and Charlie
... So that together we can all play our part by creating a legacy that helps to make the world a fairer, safer, happier and healthier place for all of our grandchildren
... With an ’80 by 80’ goal of unlocking 80 million days of help for people in need by our 80th birthdays
... And has already unlocked over 48 million days of help
The Foundation's main inspiration is our little grandson Ollie, all the other grandchildren we may be blessed with in the future, and everyone else’s grandchildren.
They are completely dependent on us, in every way imaginable.
And yet we live at a time when there are so many problems facing humanity and the planet – including poverty, hunger, inequality, climate change and all the other areas covered by the SDGs..
Problems that will cause our loved ones suffering or unhappiness, directly or indirectly.
So...
...was set up because we believe that we all have a responsibility to current and future generations to do as much as we can to help tackle those problems
