Eurofins Foundation

At Eurofins, we believe in the importance of giving back, and thanks to our success, we are in the fortunate position to be able to do so.

Everything that we do has a positive impact on health and safety and in addition, through the Eurofins Foundation, we look to go further and support organisations helping communities and initiatives that our business doesn't reach. To date, the Eurofins Foundation team has donated more than 9 million euros to projects and organisations that share the commitments of the global Eurofins community.

In 2017, to mark our 30th anniversary, Eurofins donated one million euros to over 40 charities whose purposes aligned with our mission and goals. Following the success of these donations, we formalised our philanthropic efforts. As a result, the Eurofins Foundation was born, and has since received an even higher annual amount of funding from Eurofins.

Our objectives

The Eurofins Foundation's objectives are based on the commitments of the global Eurofins community: contributing to global health and safety and protecting the environment.

The Eurofins Foundation's primary areas of focus include supporting initiatives aimed at:

- Protecting the environment: protecting ecosystems in the sea and on land and conserving our planet's scarce resources for future generations;

- Better nutrition: support projects and initiatives feeding deprived communities in developing countries, programmes aimed at decreasing food waste and facing challenges of feeding a growing world population in a sustainable manner, etc.

- Improving health: facilitating access to clean water and sanitation, supporting research on cancer, organ transplants or addressing other significant challenges in modern healthcare;

- Supporting students who study or carry out research in fields aiming at contributing to safer and healthier lives but who lack sufficient financial resources.

- Uplifting communities: helping social, not-for-profit organisations that align with Eurofins' DNA and which are active in local communities where Eurofins staff live and work.
