The Fondation de Luxembourg closed last year with a record of €10m in donations and is witnessing a growing interest in philanthropy projects, particularly in the field of research and health.
The global health crisis has had a favourable effect on philanthropic activities. The Fondation de Luxembourg (FDL) observed this throughout the year, mostly due to Fondation Covid-19, a project it set up in April 2020 which enabled it to raise donations of nearly €1.6m in support of research, health and vulnerable populations in the context of the crisis.
Taking stock of the last fiscal year, Tonika Hirdman, executive director of the FDL, notes that 2020 “was fast-paced and closed with a record €10m donated to 300 charitable projects around the world”. This is €1m more than the previous year.
