Giving back to the community
Meridian Global Foundation
Anna Pitman is the Chairperson of Meridian Global Foundation which is a philanthropic giving circle based in Western Australia.
Did you know that if you earn at least the average wage in Australia of $80,000 it puts you in the top 1% of the world’s richest people?
We are proud to be part of the ‘Mates who Donate’ at Meridian Global Foundation. Each year Meridian brings together a community of mates who donate – professionals looking to give back in a sustainable way through a fully tax-deductible donation. At each annual Giving Circle, through the power of communal philanthropy, the amount raised exceeds $100,000.
Meridian is a wonderful combination of successful people, giving back, together, and doing so with a business mindset.
Meridian host four events for their members and their mates throughout the year to share in great conversation, food and drinks. If you would like to join us at the next one, you can see all upcoming events here.
