History<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

HM The Queen has always been particularly conscious of the people who are not part of a group, people who feel lonely and are unable to understand why they are excluded from the community. The Queens desire to do something for people on the edge of society was revitalised when a 1.1 million kroner national gift was raised in Denmark and Greenland and donated in honour of The Royal Couple’s wedding in 2004. The idea really began to take shape in 2006.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A year later, in 2007, \u201cThe Mary Foundation \u2013 HRH Crown Princess Mary\u2019s Foundation\u201d became a reality.
The inspiration largely originates from The Queen\u2019s social work with patronages, where social isolation in particular often proves to be one of the key causes behind the problems. Inspiration has also been sourced from like-minded foundations around the world. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Mary Foundation\u2019s first project was launched in 2008. More projects have been taken on since then, and there are more on the horizon. This has all been realised thanks to the people\u2019s gift and the Foundation\u2019s eight co-founders, who have ensured a solid economic foundation. The group of co-founders was later expanded, and the capital stock now stands at around 220 million kroner. This capital stock has been set aside and remains untouched, providing a foundation for a long-term strategy, while the full annual return is used to combat social isolation within The Mary Foundation\u2019s three focus areas: Bullying & Well-being, Domestic Violence and Loneliness<\/p>\n\n\n\n
