Mandate

The Johansen-Larsen Foundation has been established to provide funding for educational programmes related to:

  • marginalized children and youth,
  • Individuals who are homeless, and
  • animals at risk.

Specifically, funding is to be allocated to innovative and sustainable educational programmes for:

  1. Marginalized children and youth, and those who are homeless in order to empower them to overcome the barriers they may face in their lives; and

  2. Others to learn about social injustices facing the most vulnerable human and animal members of our society, in order to foster engagement and action in addressing issues related to poverty, marginalization and/or inhumane treatment

 

"It has often been
said that the mark
of a civilized society
is how well it treats
its most vulnerable
members."
