What if we looked after the extraordinary planet we call home, and everyone living on it?
What if society made the most of people’s potential so that communities flourished and everyone could live with dignity?
It sounds like an ideal world. We think that’s worth striving for.

It is part of a wider network of philanthropic organisations founded by the Brenninkmeijer family business owners. Together, our shared aspiration is to be a force for good in the world.
