The Tristan da Cunha Education Trust Fund
was established by the Tristan da Cunha Association
in the Quincentenary Year of 2006 which celebrated the 500th Anniversary of the discovery of the island
to raise funds to support the education and training of Tristan da Cunha islanders

The Tristan da Cunha Education Trust Fund registered in the UK as Charity No. 1118779

The Tristan da Cunha Association welcomes the support
of members and friends throughout the world
for this appeal which seeks to give new opportunities to study overseas for Tristan young people.
Our first target is a fund of £100,000.
This page will contain details of special fund-raising projects and news of the current status of the fund.

Sponsors Sought
The Tristan Association Committee (who are trustees of the Trust Fund) have sent out the first batch of brochures and letters requesting donations from charities and other potential benefactors. Association Members are requested to send names and full addresses of would-be donors (ideally on a Word File) to Richard Grundy on newseditor@tristandc.com so that packs can be sent as we attempt to reach our target.

Alison's Early Bath
Alison Hentley, now Secretary of the Tristan da Cunha Association, completed her 3rd sponsored run in aid of the Tristan Education Trust Fund as she took part in the Bath Half Marathon on Sunday 16th March 2008.
Alison beat her previous Bath time, completing the course in 2 hours and 56 seconds. She hopes to raise over £250 from promised sponsors, and any other donations can be sent to the Association - see contacts on the Association Order Form Page.
