THE WINDMILLS FOUNDATION

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.
