Eva Trowbridge

Scholarships for further education in the not-for-profit sector

 
Eva Trowbridge was born in Sunderland, England and emigrated to New Zealand with her husband, Norman, in 1962.

Eva was a quiet lady who loved everything about England. She was a staunch Royalist and loved “red, white and blue”. 
 
Upon her death in 2006, Eva stipulated that half of her annual distributions will go to the Salvation Army, and her fund also provides for a scholarship each year in the areas of Youth Development and Adult Leadership.
