"After her experience in Venture Capital at Rothschild's Asset Management in London during the mid 1990s, Tamzin returned to South Africa and embarked on various fundraising initiatives for well-known citizen organizations, including the Red Cross Children’s Hospital and the Athlone Association for the Blind. Despite the powerful work of each organization, Tamzin was constantly forced to confront the lack of access to resources for the citizen sector. She noticed similar challenges at Big Brother, Big Sister South Africa, and it was out of these experiences that the idea for the GSIX was born. After testing her theory that providing information on work being done by citizen sector organizations in an accessible form would elicit funding, she established Greater Good South Africa." [1]

Her father is Jeremy Ractliffe . Her mother is artist and alternative therapist psychologist Barbara Fairhead. [2]
