What is the IKEA Foundation and what do they do?
The IKEA Foundation was founded in 1982 by Ingvar Kamprad as a strategic philanthropic organization, focusing on two of the biggest threats to our children's future: poverty and climate change. Each year, the Foundation grants more than €200 million to help improve the lives of the many families, communities, and the world we live in.
Every year, the IKEA Foundation provides valuable funding for causes dedicated to improving the lives and environment of many people around the world.
