KidsRights

Every child has talents. Every child has dreams. KidsRights, based in the Netherlands, believes in a world where all children have access to their rights and are enabled to realise the great potential they have within them.

KidsRights promotes the wellbeing of very vulnerable children across the world and advocates the realisation of their rights. KidsRights sees children as changemakers in this process. As Nobel Peace Prize winner and patron of KidsRights, Desmond Tutu says: “KidsRights seeks to give a voice to the voiceless”. More information on: www.kidsrights.org

Greenpeace

Greenpeace exists because this fragile earth deserves a voice. It needs solutions. It needs change. It needs action.

Greenpeace is an independent global campaigning organisation that acts to change attitudes and behaviour, to protect and conserve the environment and to promote peace. More information on: www.greenpeace.org/international/en/about/

KWF (Dutch Cancer Society)

Many of us know someone who is fighting cancer. A family member, a friend, a colleague or a good business relationship.

This is not surprising when you know that every year 91,000 people are diagnosed with cancer. That's 10 people per hour ... Therefore, KCS has decided to take action against this horrible disease and sponsor the Dutch Cancer Society (KWF) each month with a donation.

As a company we share the dream of a world where cancer is no longer a fatal disease and with our donation we support cancer research and the education of KWF-fellows. With our support these talented young researchers are able to gain experience in cancer research and / or specialist treatment of cancer.

Hartstichting (Dutch heart foundation)

The heart foundation fights against cardiovascular disease. By funding research, we hope that in the future fewer people die of cardiovascular disease. We also support patients, we provide education and we are working to improve quality of care. More information on: www.hartstichting.nl (Dutch).
