“Fritt Ord stays with EFC to benefit from Europe’s most professional source of inspiration in the foundation field.”
Erik Rudeng, Institusjonen Fritt Ord (Norway) 

"EFC has provided Fondazione di Venezia and me personally with an exceptional forum for meeting people with common interests and values, exchanging ideas, learning from others' experience and culture -  all well beyond European boundaries. And this is the basis of cooperation among foundations, an objective that we should pursue with passion."
Massimo Lanza, Fondazione di Venezia (Italy)

“Without membership and support of EFC the Koerber Foundation would not be able to establish the international network “EUSTORY” with more than 20 European countries in less than 8 years – cross border work at its best!”
Dr. Klaus Wehmeier, Koerber Foundation (Germany)

“EFC keeps my organization, Welfare Association, linked to foundations in Europe specifically and worldwide generally. Without such platform for across countries and continents interactions one would stagnate and become too much self-focused with all the negativeness that comes with it.”
Atallah Kuttab, Welfare Association (Switzerland) 

“The Community Foundation for Northern Ireland works to an ethos of social justice and peacebuilding. Although we are relatively small and community-based we find that membership of the European Foundation Centre allows us to develop our thinking in a broader framework. We can learn from other philanthropic institutions and hopefully make a contribution to their knowledge and thinking as well.”
Avila Kilmurray, Community Foundation for Northern Ireland (UK)

“EFC is our main portal, source of information and reference point for the European Philanthropy market.”
Pieter Stemerding, Adessium Foundation (The Netherlands)
