What Our Clients Say

Leonie Bell, Bell Family Foundation

“I can’t recommend Collective Manifesto & Sarah Metcalf highly enough, they have completely changed our way of thinking about philanthropy. 

Sarah started by helping us zero in on the causes that really matter to us & to be more strategic in our giving. She is a fabulous sounding board & voice of reason when we go off course.

Sarah has connected us with like minded organisations & philanthropists, & is in the process of ‘training’ the next generation.

In the four years we have been working with Sarah, she has helped us grow from a small to a medium sized Foundation. She takes an interest in the organisations we work with & supports them to reach their goals.”

Kylie Lamprecht, Private Business & Family Advisory Partner

(Pitcher Partners)

Philanthropy isn't just about giving back; it's about shaping a family legacy, creating connectivity within families & their communities, & making a meaningful impact for generations to come.

My clients’ biggest concern is equipping the next generations to manage the wealth whilst keeping the family intact.

Setting up a family Foundation helps this by instilling values, culture, & community connection. I see families experience great joy out of unique & tailored philanthropic initiatives.

Collective Manifesto delivers on sourcing & matching these initiatives, managing philanthropy partnerships, & helping people give with purpose and impact. ”

Annabelle Chauncy, CEO, School for Life Foundation

Sarah values deep relationships with her clients & the for-purpose organisations they support to establish effective, meaningful & mutually beneficial relationships based on trust, transparency & learning. She generates a sense of joy & fulfilment for the people she works with.”
