Everyone has potential.

Everyone has potential and everyone has dreams. However, not everyone is fortunate or advantaged enough to realise them straight away. For more than 10 years, our team members have worked to create a society with higher social equality through donations, research, and partnerships.

About us

Meaningful and measurable.

We believe in converting social impact into monetary value using the SROI method because it creates stronger and longer-lasting social improvements. At Lind Foundation, we are fueled by compassion and enthusiasm but always guided by data and insights.
