The Franklin D. Roosevelt Four Freedoms Awards

Roosevelt Stichting

 

The Roosevelt Stichting is a private foundation established in 1982 to organize the Four Freedoms Awards ceremony in Middelburg and for that purpose cooperates with the Franklin and Eleanor Roosevelt Institute in Hyde Park, New York.

 

Together with the Franklin and Eleanor Roosevelt Institute our mission is also to inform new generations of the ideals and achievements of Franklin and Eleanor Roosevelt and to inspire the application of their spirit of optimism and innovation to the solution of current problems.

 

The board of the Roosevelt Stichting thanks its advisors who generously donate their time and expertise to support FDR's Four Freedoms.
