If he wanted to do it to help local kids why not the CSF?

Why has Zoe Ward, a trustee of the CSF (which does pretty much what this Summit Foundation sats it’s going to do although they don’t actually seem able to specify what that is - the website is all about plugging his podcast) set up what on the face of it is a rival foundation to the CSF?

Raising money for charity is to be commended but it’s clear he was doing this challenge anyway.
