The King Baudouin Foundation United States (KBFUS), operating as an American 501(c)(3) public charity, helps American donors support European and African nonprofits in an efficient, tax deductible and secure way. Whether you’re an individual, a family, a corporation or a foundation, our services enable you to make charitable gifts to the causes you care about. Making grants overseas is not always easy. But with our local insights and networks, we smooth the process and help you make the most of your philanthropic funds, in compliance with both local and U.S. regulations. And if you don’t have a favorite organization in mind, we can help you identify great funding opportunities in the country, region or field of your interest. Over the past three years, we have facilitated more than $30 million in grants to support a wide variety of causes. In Africa, our donors provided funding for initiatives that, among other things, train health professionals, promote human rights, strengthen judicial independence, and stimulate sustainable sources of income for local communities. In Europe, we helped donors connect with organizations that foster the next generation of great musicians, protect children from harm while online, develop innovative cancer therapies, and preserve the memory of the Holocaust, to name a few examples. And as well as helping donors to support nonprofit initiatives overseas, we also assist European and African organizations in raising funds in the United States. Through an American friends fund at KBFUS, they can reach out to American donors with a tool that bears their name and invite them to support their activities through contributions that are tax-deductible for U.S. tax purposes. In addition to the services we provide to donors and nonprofits, we have developed a series of educational programs that present unique opportunities for cross-cultural learning in the fields of fundraising and philanthropy. KBFUS is a founding partner of the Alliance for International Giving, which brings together three leading providers of donor-advised international giving services: KBFUS (for Europe & Africa); Give2Asia (for the Asia-Pacific region); and The Resource Foundation (for Latin America & the Caribbean). Furthermore, we are an active member of the Council on Foundations, EDGE Funders Alliance, the Africa Grantmakers Affinity Group and the International Human Rights Funders Group, and also support the efforts of the United States International Grantmaking (USIG) project.

Around the world, modern and industrialized farming practices are destroying the environment—and, at the same time, failing to provide reliable income and nourishment for the farmers we all depend on to survive. At Trees for the Future (TREES), we recognize that unsustainable land use is the root cause of our most pressing challenges. We confront these challenges by serving the people at the heart of our global food systems: farmers and their families. As a global leader in agroforestry training for over 30 years, TREES provides hands-on, immersive education, skill building, and support, encouraging farmers to work with nature, not against it. Our signature methodology, the Forest Garden Approach, helps farmers transform their land with thousands of fast-growing, ecologically appropriate trees and dozens of other crops, creating new possibilities for themselves and their communities. By embracing sustainable land practices, farmers are reclaiming their agency, breaking the cycles of climate change and generational poverty, and rebuilding our food systems from the ground up.
