“The Snow Foundation was founded in Canberra by my brother George and me in 1991. We started it to make a difference to people’s lives in the community of our origins. George and I had a pretty straightforward view; see someone struggling and give them a helping hand.”

What a joy it was to finally come together on June 1st and celebrate the 30th anniversary of the Foundation with 150 partners, colleagues and family, on Ngunnawal land. It was a celebration for all of us – a chance to recognise the tremendous work of our partners, and an opportunity to share stories.

The energy of a room full of socially-minded people, striving for a more caring and inclusive community was incredibly special and we really enjoyed the heartwarming spirit in the room. We honour Terry and George for taking the initiative to start the Foundation. It was a pioneering move, challenging the usual pathways at the time to establish a foundation, so we’re thankful for their vision and perseverance.
