Vision
We need more people that commit to make the world a better place. These change makers need more support and funds because communities and impact organisations are society's transition accelerators. They demonstrate the (im)possible, offer solutions to societal and world problems and create success cases that show us how to move forward. These solutions make it easier for consumers to become sustainable and healthy. More importantly, they create new societal norms that give politicians the legitimacy to implement regulations that influences large corporations and consumer behavior.
Mission
Accelerate the transition to a healthy society by founding sustainable solutions that have no business model or market-product fit (yet) but realize a significant impact on the health of people and planet.
History
The forerunner of the Foundig Good Foundation was founded in 2011 by Joris Heijnen. It was previously known as Stichting Variatie op de Kaart and Stichting Variatie in de Keuken and from 2019 as Stichting Greendish. Since 2020 we are ANBI approved by the Dutch Government. With a renewed mission and improved governance structure Founding Good Foundation was (re)born in 2024.
Our initiatives have been featured in almost all the Dutch national press. From the NOS Journaal to RTL Editie NL, de Volkskrant, NRC, AD, Parool, Telegraaf, Radio1, 2 and BNR News Radio.
