Sponsor - The Wright Family Foundation

The Wright Family Foundation’s vision is to create articulate readers and writers who may go on to higher education with confidence. The Foundation was created from a heartfelt drive to enable individuals to achieve their full potential through education in its widest and most varied forms.

The objective is to benefit New Zealand communities and youth, and to promote family wellbeing and relief from hardship, by advancing education and spreading knowledge. This stemmed from a desire to make a positive difference in New Zealand society by helping to promote and demonstrate to our youngest members the values of collaboration, sharing, and kindness.

Chloe (ONZM) and Wayne Wright have built New Zealand’s largest privately owned Early Learning organisation, BestStart. The Wright Family Foundation is the culmination of many years spent in the service of making a difference in the lives of children.

The Wright Family Foundation is the sole sponsor of the Aotearoa New Zealand Spelling Bee.
