Supporting community projects for a better tomorrow
Founded in 2016, the Van Lanschot Kempen Foundation is a charity that supports community projects for a better world for future generations. The Foundation puts to work financial donations and volunteering time as well as the knowledge of our colleagues, network and clients. Our employees are also able to seek donations for social projects in which they are personally involved. The Van Lanschot Kempen Foundation has ANBI status.
Our overarching theme and a key priority for our colleagues, contributing to a sustainable living environment connects us with the Sustainable Development Goals.

We put the wealth of our colleagues' financial knowledge to work in educational projects relating to education, employment, pensions, insurance and mortgages.

We think it’s important to contribute to the preservation and creation of our cultural heritage for people who don’t have easy access to it.

We raise awareness for social healthcare by using our extensive network and expertise in the healthcare sector.

Encouraging interaction between different social groups through playing sport is an important way to contribute to a healthy society – both physically and mentally.

"In 2022, under a new policy plan, we established our ambitions for 2022-2026. We've also included a sustainable living environment as a new and overarching focus area fulfilling an often-heard request from our volunteers to give this important theme specific attention in our activities. Our thanks go to all the volunteers, who again put their heart and soul into the Foundation over the past year. We are also very grateful to all our donors who once again generously donated." Godfried van Lanschot, Chair of the Van Lanschot Kempen Foundation
