Dekeyser & Friends Foundation

Since its inception in 2009, the Dekeyser&Friends Foundation has become an inspiring stage where dedicated and enthusiastic people can meet to promote positive social change in the world.

We continuously work on growing a movement that allows experienced leaders to pass on their knowledge and passion to young people worldwide. We continue to motivate entrepreneurs, artists, sportsmen, scientists, and educators to enter into dialogue and exchange, thereby inspiring young people to develop themselves while motivating them to take on responsibility for their social environment.

We support young adults to take on the challenges of today’s world by courageously, optimistically and jointly fulfilling their dreams. We aim to live but also to critically discuss values and abilities, such as friendship, tolerance, global responsibility, courage, communication, teamwork, entrepreneurship and optimism. We hope you enjoy learning more about our approach, the D&F Academy in Hamburg and its educational programs, and our work in the Philippines. Please do not hesitate to contact us or spread the word on our activities.

“I get up every morning determined to both change the world and have one hell of a good time. Sometimes this makes planning my day difficult.” We believe that making a difference in the world is like anything else worth doing – it’s never going to be easy, but the results will be worth the effort.
