01.01.2022 Our 2020 AGM provided the perfect opportunity to gather at the end of a challenging year. Our thanks to Atura Albury for hosting the event. It was also an occasion to farewell Grace Churches, our Chair for the past year who is stepping down from the Board. Grace has done an incredible amount for the Trust, raising profile, launching important campaigns like the Bushfire Relief Fund and engaging with a new generation of fabulous young philanthropists.... She will continue to be a keen community advocate for Border Trust. We miss you already, Grace! We welcome Ashley Boyd to the role of Chair. Ash has been on the Board since early 2019 in the position of Treasurer and brings experience and insight to the position. He’s also an integral part of our wonderful Give500 Committee and will be supported in the Chair role by an enthusiastic, motivated and connected group of Directors who we’ll introduce over the coming days. www.bordertrust.org.au
