UK Friends of Ecolint is a registered charitable incorporated organisation (CIO) in the United Kingdom.
Our objectives are to contribute towards the advancement of education and learning, in particular by:
1. Supporting the activities of the International School of Geneva (Ecolint);
2. Supporting charitable activities of other organisations as the trustees shall determine from time to time.
We also organize events and social gatherings to foster connections within the Ecolint UK community. Through these activities, we raise funds to support the school’s initiatives and the future generations of students.

No matter which area you support or what amount you choose to donate, Ecolint is extremely grateful for your tax-deductible gift.
Agnes graduated from LGB in 1990 as the eldest among eight siblings, all of whom attended Ecolint at some point. Her closest companions hail from her Ecolint days, particularly those who shared her experiences on the school basketball team.
She earned academic distinction by being listed on the Honour Roll and being the student speaker at her class graduation. Following the completion of her MBA, she relocated to London, where she took the initiative to establish the Escalade dinners and coordinate various other alumni gatherings. Temporarily stepping back from these responsibilities to focus on her family and career, Agnes has recently reengaged with the community as a trustee for the UK foundation of the International School of Geneva.
Michael was born and grew up in Geneva, attending Ecolint from 1978 to 1985. While he pursued his higher education in the US, he returned to Europe in 1998 and has been living in London since that time working in investment banking and now private equity. He returns to Geneva often to visit family, but also friends from Ecolint with whom he has been going on an annual ski trip for as long as he can remember.
After completing her entire high school education at Ecolint and graduating from LGB in 1983, Lesley obtained a BA in languages from University College Cardiff. She has spent the last 35 years in the HR profession. Following 10 years heading up the CIPD (Chartered Institute of Personnel and Development) in Wales, she has recently relaunched her consultancy business which will give her more time to devote to volunteering activity including Ecolint’s work in the UK.
