ABOUT THE EDDIE JORDAN FOUNDATION
The Eddie Jordan Foundation was established in memory of Eddie Jordan to unlock potential in young people through mentorship, education, and entrepreneurship. The Foundation supports individuals across four fields that defined Eddie's life and career — Sport, Music, Sailing, and Business — by providing access, belief, opportunity, and momentum to those who might not otherwise get the chance. As a registered charity, the Foundation relies on strong day-to-day administration and coordination to deliver its mission effectively.
