Thundafund is headed up by the award winning social entrepreneur, Patrick Schofield. Having consulted widely in the development world, and personally established and built up successful high social and environmental impact organisations, Patrick recognised the need and opportunity for the crowdfunding model in South Africa & Africa.

Patrick began working on Thundafund in 2011. When the partnership with Buzzbnk.org, a UK based crowdfunding platform, was formed in mid-2012, Thundafund began to take shape.

Our team is now: Patrick Schofield; Eben Welby-Solomon; Jamie Walker and Andrea Morgan.
