About Us
The Aaron Sansoni Foundation was established to create real change where it’s needed. We do this by creating global awareness for the charities we partner with, as well as mobilising large volunteer networks to help on our Give Back days both in Australia and around the world.
In 2018 we partnered with OzHarvest and our goal was to raise $125,000 to feed a quarter of a million of those who are disadvantaged. We are delighted to say that we achieved that goal!
In 2019 we are proud to announce that we are partnering with The Starlight Foundation. Starlight are Australia’s broadest reaching children’s charity and with no government funding – they rely solely on community support to deliver their in hospital and community programs, and achieve their mission, which is ‘to brighten the lives of seriously ill children and their families’.
We believe in fewer barriers and more donations getting to where they’re needed, which is why the total operating cost of the Aaron Sansoni Foundation is covered by Aaron Sansoni himself to ensure the maximum percentage of donations goes to where it should. When we say every cent goes to those in need, that’s exactly what we mean.
Aaron Sansoni’s Commitment
100% OF ALL FUNDS DONATED GO DIRECTLY TO HELPING THOSE IN NEED, WITHOUT EXCEPTION.
ZERO COSTS, FEES OR EXPENSES ARE DEDUCTED FROM DONATIONS; ALL COSTS ASSOCIATED WITH AARON SANSONI FOUNDATION OPERATIONS ARE 100% COVERED BY AARON SANSONI.
As well as raising awareness for the causes the Foundation works with, Aaron has also made a commitment to personally donate two percent of gross revenues of select products and services at select events from his education businesses directly to the Aaron Sansoni Foundation each quarter.
