As Fund and Client Services Lead in the Community Team, Thomas works with fundholders and clients to find the right solutions for their giving goals and ensure they get the most out of being part of our giving community.

I’M PASSIONATE ABOUT…

“I am passionate about leaving a better planet and society for future generations, so that our children and their children can live happy and engaging lives. I believe philanthropy, along with strong democracies and an engaged civil society, can help deliver that goal. I’m also passionate about running, so you may see me running along the Yarra at lunch time!”

MY EXPERIENCE

“I am a passionate philanthropic relationship professional, having held positions in philanthropic and for-purpose organisations. While at the Myer Family Company, I helped multiple families start their philanthropic journey by assisting them in the creation of their giving vehicles. At La Trobe University and Australian Schools Plus I worked with various trusts, family foundations, corporations, and individuals to fulfill their philanthropic goals. I specialise in building relationships with philanthropists, trusts and foundations and community donors as they achieve their philanthropic vision.”

MY FAVOURITE STORY

“I’ve had a great opportunity meet with and chat with Krystain a few times and I’m always inspired by his thoughtful approach to the good philanthropy can do.”
