The Fred Foundation supports social initiatives dedicated to living life in harmony – harmony with ourselves and each other, and with nature.
Together with social initiatives we restore and protect nature
So that everyone has the chance
to live a good life
Because a well-functioning and open society matters to everyone
We contribute to practical, innovative and scalable initiatives, making the most of our experience and knowledge.
We are hands-on, launching our own initiatives to show how things can be done differently.
We invest in impact funds and social enterprises through the Flowfund Foundation (Stichting Flowfund). This is how we put our assets directly to work for the causes supported by the Fred Foundation.
