Charity

Leaving the world better than how we found it. That's what it's all about: creating prosperity for all. With our Degroof Petercam Foundation and many more initiatives like it, we show that the power of partnerships can have a lasting impact on generations to come.

Why we are into charity

As an investment house, we care for the next generation. For your children and grandchildren. Not only by offering them financial protection and teaching them the financial skills they need. But also by investing in sustainability, and therefore a better world. A world that lasts longer. And a world in which, above all, we care for each other and in which everyone gets a chance to shine.

Better and Degroof Petercam

Through the Gingo Foundation, the first platform for collaborative philanthropy, Degroof Petercam is co-founding Better, a digital subscription to philanthropy aimed at young professionals.

Because millennials are certainly no less altruistic than previous generations, they too realize that our society is facing major challenges and would like to do their bit. But until now they did not have the appropriate tools to do so. And Better is changing that.

Better boosts philanthropy in three ways: with a new audience, with a new approach and with statistical data.

Better breaks through the often rather old-fashioned image of philanthropy. So no rigid structures and cumbersome procedures, or dated communication. Thus, the platform is committed to an approach that makes philanthropy as sharp as a startup. And that includes digital tools, simple automated processes and engaging communication. That way Better speaks the language of the younger generation. Our goal is to get those who don't yet make donations excited about philanthropy. And that by offering them a solution that fits them seamlessly.

Gingo was created to boost philanthropy. But donating to a cause close to your heart is not so obvious; you first have to choose an appropriate organization. After you are convinced that it can be trusted and will put your gift to good use, you then have to think about effectively transferring money. Because most people have a lot on their minds, that's where things tend to go wrong. With Gingo, we've already overcome many of these obstacles. With Better, we are taking that a step further and are ready to get the next generation excited as well.
