Hugh Green Foundation is dedicated to improving living standards and the social well-being of New Zealand communities.

The Hugh Green Foundation is a family-led foundation committed to partnering with communities, organisations, and initiatives that drive positive change across New Zealand. Established in 1998 by Hugh and Moira Green, the Hugh Green Foundation was inspired by Hugh’s early experiences of poverty in Ireland and remains dedicated to making a lasting impact. With a strong focus on advancing innovative medical research, reducing poverty, expanding education opportunities for young learners, and improving health outcomes while promoting health equity, the Hugh Green Foundation continues to walk alongside those striving to build a better future.
