Founded in 2009 by Malcolm and Margaret Howat, the Howat Foundation is committed to advancing research and improving lives through targeted philanthropic support.
 
The Foundation has a long-standing partnership with the University of Glasgow, where it funds exceptional researchers and vital projects. This support helps accelerate groundbreaking discoveries in the fight against cancer.
​
In addition, the Howat Foundation extends its impact beyond Glasgow by supporting important work at the University of Oxford, Love Oliver, and humanitarian efforts in Ukraine. Together, these initiatives reflect the Foundation’s enduring commitment to research, compassion, and global community, turning generosity into meaningful change.
