Monetary Donors
Increasingly, philanthropy and individual donors play a role as supporters and partners of ANZGITA as we continue to deliver our training programs, expand our activities within them, provide equipment and other support to the centres and doctors we work with, and as we look to initiate programs in more countries. The role of donations is also growing in importance due to reductions in Australian government funding of development work in AsiaPacific countries. See the DONATE page for how to donate.
The directors and members of ANZGITA gratefully acknowledge the support of all our donors. Below are some examples of generous philanthropic and corporate donations and those of private individuals.
In 2015 we received a donation of $60,000 from Len Ainsworth, a philanthropist, and a commitment for further support over the next five years.

In an effort orchestrated by Dr Terry Gavaghan, a number of doctors in Canberra chose to donate a fee from a procedure each undertook for ANZGITA's work in Fiji. Our thanks to them. We are looking to replicate this approach elsewhere.
To these individuals, corporations and foundations, and othes who have generously donated, we express our sincere thanks.
