Everyone’s unique – make the most of your individuality
Why has the Foundation been established?
In being all we can be, Windmills is committed to making a sustainable difference in the world. We believe there are many people in the world with skills, talents, passions and expertise who, like us, are searching for ways by which they can fulfil their potential in a 'giving' way. The Windmills Foundation has been established to enable these people to discover and unlock their potential. We help them channel their energy into purposes and causes that are meaningful to them, that will benefit from their particular contribution and make a sustainable impact in the world.
Who is it aimed at?
If you are a young person with a passion we are keen to hear from you. However we will support people regardless of age, qualification, ethnicity, religion, and gender. What counts is to have real energy and enthusiasm and be willing to take responsibility to make a difference in the world. That difference might be large or small, local or global. The Foundation supports those who share these ideals with us.
What the Foundation does?
The Windmills Foundation focuses on developing the quality and the quantity of 'giving' in people's lives while blending this with the other elements of working, learning and playing. The Foundation creates a process for individuals to fulfil their potential to give more effectively as local and global citizens by:
- Discovering their unique skills and talents
- Dreaming of ways of combining them, for purposes that are meaningful for them
- Doing something really practical to make their vision real and effective
- Developing ways to grow and share their work with others to multiply its impact
We deliver this promise through coaching and mentoring, developing "make a difference projects" designing new programmes and curricula and working with partners who share similar values. Contact us for more information.
How can I get involved?
Perhaps you have a growing sense of wishing to do something more meaningful in your life. Or you could be someone with the beginnings of an idea but are feeling unsure how to shape it. You may even have already begun to make a difference and wish to achieve more. If you fit any of these descriptions, then we'd love to hear from you.
From our experience we help people most where they...
- Have a positive attitude
- Have passion and energy
- Are prepared to take responsibility
- Are willing to be brave
- Happy to work with others
- Learn from their mistakes
- Are true to themselves
If this sounds like you, then get in touch to see if we can support you in making your particular difference in the world.
