    Goals / Remit

    The King Baudouin Foundation's mission is to contribute to a better society in Belgium, in Europe and in the world.

    The Foundation is an actor for change and innovation in Belgium and Europe, serving the public interest and increasing social cohesion. It seeks to maximise its impact by improving skills in organisations and for individuals. It also stimulates effective philanthropy by individuals and corporations.

    The Foundation’s most important values are integrity and transparency, promoting solidarity, respect for diversity, pluralism and independence.

    Our vision for the future is to anchor our activities in Belgium on every level, to continue to put the KBF on the map in Europe and to become a significant player in cross-border philanthropy internationally - with the help of our KBF family: KBFUS and KBF Canada and through our partnership with Give2Asia.

    The King Baudouin Foundation was set up in 1976, on the occasion of the 25th anniversary of King Baudouin's reign.
