The Wits Australian Board of Directors form an independent charitable committee that supports the University of the Witwatersrand in Johannesburg, South Africa. Our members are committed to assisting Wits to build on its strengths as a great university justly admired for its globally competitive standards of excellence in learning, teaching, and research. The aim is to promote greater awareness of the enormous contribution Wits makes to society, to secure financial support for Wits, and to keep alumni in contact with their alma mater.
