Empowering the Luxembourg non-profit scene

ING’s main objective is and remains to empower people to stay a step ahead both in life and in business. And what better way to do so than support and promote the local non-profit and
social development oriented sector?
The ING Solidarity Awards is a two-part contest based on:

  1. An online vote;
  2. A jury vote for a project.

1. The Online Vote: 93 contestants, 30 victors
The first part of the contest rewards the most publicly supported Luxembourg-based associations based on an online voting contest. Of 93 associations registered on ING.lu and with more than 30,000 votes accumulated, 30 associations were presented with a EUR 1,000 cheque each.
