Vanessa Brady Foundation

http://www.vanessabradyfoundation.org/

Our Objective is to create a platform that will introduce employers to potential employees and also to provide direction for business success and profit. We will operate the charity at minimal cost with a long term objective to extend the programme throughout Europe and other countries, where trustees and sponsors hold existing agreements with international universities.

The charity aims:

• To create an apolitical Big Society ethos within the creative industries.
• To encourage entrepreneurialism in the UK Economy by promoting a ‘creative energy’
• To guide the next generation by creating and improving routes for them into business
• To help future generations realize their potential by introducing them to the wealth that they can create for themselves – and the Country – through their own talent and business.

Fundraising is an important part of a successful charity. The Vanessa Brady Foundation has enrolled the support of iconic leaders from various fields of creativity and business. Each person has an inspiring story and such influential and motivated supporters not only inspire others but also assist our fundraising programmes.
