Annual Review
The Annual Review looks back at some of the results and learning that came out of the Foundation’s projects over the past year.

2025: New philanthropic programmes

Within our philanthropic work, the year has been characterised by stable development and new initiatives. The Foundation distributed a total of DKK 343 million in 2025. We have launched a series of charitable programmes that reflect our ambition to act where the need is greatest – and where we can create the greatest impact.

2024: Community Engagement

As the owner of the Grundfos Group and its affiliated companies, our desire has been to create the opportunity for local engagement and to live our common values in collaboration with others. This has happened across most of the world, and we are delighted to see that the Foundation’s contributions are producing sustainable results on both a large and small scale. This, coupled with the Grundfos Group’s unique volunteering programme, which gives employees three paid days to engage locally, has resulted in specific, lasting programmes within education, environment and active citizenship.

The front page of this year’s Annual Review illustrates such a Community Engagement programme, where Grundfos colleagues in Vietnam have set about removing plastic waste from rivers and other watercourses.  Hundreds of other programmes in various parts of the world bear testimony to a huge desire to contribute.
