Philanthropy

Human rights, children, education, and the arts.

Trish Duggan's philanthropic work revolves around children, education, human rights, cultural respect, Imagine Museum, and support of the arts — guided by a belief in human potential, freedom of thought, and the power of beauty to elevate consciousness.

Inspiring Human Potential

Trish Duggan’s philanthropic work is focused on empowering individuals and strengthening communities through human rights education, drug awareness and prevention, spiritual enlightenment, civics education, programs that support children, and the arts.

Guided by a belief in the inherent potential of every individual, we support initiatives that foster freedom of thought, personal responsibility, cultural understanding, creativity, and respect for human dignity. Through education, the arts, and community engagement, we seek to inspire people to reach their full potential and contribute to a more compassionate, informed, and flourishing society.

As a patron of the arts, Trish travels the world collecting art from emerging talent and indigenous artists as a means to promote artistic traditions and cultures.

As former President of the Adoption Support Group in Santa Barbara, she helped educate and inspire parents to adopt children domestically and internationally.

She is an Ambassador to Youth for Human Rights International and has spoken at the United Nations in support of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.

Trish believes that art and philanthropy share the same values: beauty, imagination, dignity, compassion, tolerance, and understanding.
