About the Foundation

A personal commitment, made institutional.

The Simon Annan Foundation is a charitable organisation founded by Dr. Simon Annan and officially launched in November 2026. It builds on charitable work carried out personally for some time: paying school fees for students, supporting an orphanage and providing clean water to a community.

Its formal launch brings this work under a structured, accountable organisation — positioned to reach more children, families and communities, and to work with partners who share its vision.
