How It All Began - About the TCD Trust

The TCD Trust has been formed by 4 players in the tourism industry, who, recognizing the tremendous need for help in many disadvantaged areas, have teamed up in a bid to unify the efforts of their individual businesses and maximize their effectiveness in bringing the benefits of tourism to the community at large.

Each of the trustees has been personally involved, in a hands-on capacity, with various community projects and after chatting about these projects, comparing notes and sharing their frustrations, they decided that it made perfect sense to pool their efforts & resources and to form a legal body to take these efforts to greater heights.
