IT4Kids Foundation opens trading day
IT4Kids Foundation visits the Amsterdam exchange and opens the trading day with a sounding of the gong by founder Jordy Kool.
By sounding the gong he literally and figuratively makes noise for the IT4Kids Foundation. IT4Kids was founded in 2013 and is committed to helping children. The Netherlands is one of the richest countries in the world. Yet as many as 1 in 8 children grow up in a family that has to live on a subsistence level. Many children from this group miss out on the opportunity to play sports. Values and skills such as resilience, cooperation, dealing with loss and respect are taught when participating in sports. Values and skills that are so important in every phase of life. IT4Kids collects used and written off hardware and, on behalf of the donor, donates the value to charities that are committed to children. IT4Kids organized a gala last October during which € 418,000 was collected, and recently received donations from, amongst others, the Rabobank Bollenstreek.
