Our Charitable Work
We have two principle objectives:
To promote understanding of Chile in the UK: to help people in hardship or distress in Chile.
To help us promote Chilean artistic and literary talent, we have the benefit of income
from the Alan Macdonald Endowment Fund
Where the money goes
We have made grants to numerous organisations in Chile aiding the disadvantaged, ranging from providing musical instruments for children in poor areas to helping charities rescuing
prostitutes and providing non-clinical support for children with cancer.
The Alan Macdonald funds have helped us bring Chilean musicians, films,
plays and literature to British audiences.
When Chile has faced major catastrophes, we have augmented our funds with special appeals as we did for the victims of the disastrous wild fires in 2016 and the the terrible earthquake in 2010.
