Royal Lemkes Foun T SHARING IS MULTIPLYING he Royal Lemkes Foundation believes that people can make a difference by working together. We would like to see the economy and society move closer. This would mean the economy again being at the heart of society, whereby a better understanding of different groups and a belief in everyone’s potential is encouraged. In turn, this would lead to an increase in mutual appreciation, empathy and a service-oriented attitude, resulting in better relationships between people, a more sustainable living environment and a stronger economy. The Royal Lemkes Foundation therefore supports projects that focus on ‘green and togetherness’. CHRISTMAS BREAKFAST During the 2018 Christmas breakfast, 20 cheques were handed to employees who had nominated charities as part of the ‘Gesture of Encouragement’ donation project. The following social initiatives received a financial contribution: Logeerhuis De Buren, Bij Anders Foundation, All the Way Foundation, Santa Run Den Haag, Samen Sterk zonder Stigma, Mariëtte’s Child Care Foundation, Bake for Life Foundation, ElizaYo Foundation, Hartige Samaritaan Foundation, Woord en Daad Foundation, Plastic Soup Foundation and Waterpas Foundation. In their own different ways, these initiatives aim to make the world a better place, not least by ensuring that no one is excluded from society. We are also in talks 50 with several organisations that are eligible for structural aid over a threeyear period, such as Waterpas Foundation, an organisation that provides clean drinking water in Mombasa.
