Established in memory of Bernard Etzin, dedicated to comfort, care and dignity where they are needed most.
The Etzin Foundation was created by Justin Etzin in memory of his father, Bernard Etzin, and it carries his name into work he would have recognized: quiet, practical acts of care for people in difficult circumstances.
The foundation’s guiding belief is simple. If you have the ability to contribute, you have the duty to act. That principle decides where the foundation works, what it funds, and why it exists at all.
The foundation creates meaningful experiences for people in palliative care, moments of joy for individuals and families in the hardest season of their lives, when what matters most is time well spent.
The foundation funds life-saving medical equipment for hospitals in need, from diagnostic laboratory equipment to 180,000 auto-disable syringes donated to the Government of Seychelles for its national Covid-19 vaccination programme.
For a nation of islands, medical capacity is a lifeline. The foundation’s donations of laboratory and vaccination equipment to the Seychelles Ministry of Health support the country’s ability to carefor its own people, on its own shores.
Like the One Ocean, One Future Foundation, The Etzin Foundation is funded entirely by Justin Etzin and accepts no outside donations. No fundraising, no campaigns, only the work itself.
