10 years of empowering social change.

Lind Foundation is borne from more than 10 years of social efforts at Lind Invest, the single-family office of Henrik Lind and long-term investor associated with Lind Foundation. While our donations and ability to provide financial support emerge from this investment company, we are now independently working to ensure a positive and measurable impact.
