Mackay Foundation

Alman Partners Fund 

Alman Partners helps their clients align their financial choices with their most important goals and deepest held values. They then set about getting their client's financial house in order and keep that way, so that no matter what happens in the markets, the economy or the world their clients have a higher probability of achieving their stated goals. The business has been helping clients achieve their goals since 1985.

Scott Alman, Director of Alman Partners, established The Mackay Foundation in 2003 as a perpetual legacy for Mackay. Scott and business partner Stephen Lowry remain as directors of the foundation and are actively involved in building this charitable vehicle to improve the lives of people in our region.

"In many ways we felt there was a richer model for charities, and took what we know about long term savings and compounding returns and implemented those principles into the foundation. Traditionally charities exhaust the funds they raise each year and are required to go back cap in hand for more donations. We felt a community trust would allow better management of funds raised for short term and long term needs. In short we were looking for a way to 'give where we live' just like planting a seed, growing a tree and giving away the fruit year after year", Scott said.

Alman Partners are current corporate sponsors of The Mackay Foundation donating much valued funds to as with the administration of the Foundation.
