Improving social mobility by, generally but not solely, funding educational initiatives and aspirational programmes which can lead to increased opportunities for employment for those young people who have to overcome obstacles to progress.
The Sofronie Foundation supports initiatives and activities which create opportunities to unlock talent in young people. Whether it is working with partners in areas of high unemployment or supporting programmes delivering education, the Board is committed to driving the agenda to improve social mobility through meaningful employment. Last year the Board pledged to support younger students to access and develop creative technological skills and we have now finalised our support to join a new programme with TUMO in Amsterdam in 2024.
The foundation is personally funded by Corinne Vigreux and funding approved by a board of trustees.
