ROBERT F. KENNEDY LEGACY CIRCLE

JOIN OUR LEGACY CIRCLE and INCREASE YOUR IMPACT.

The RFK LEGACY CIRCLE is the benefactor program of Robert F. Kennedy Human Rights in Switzerland and is offered to companies and individuals who wish to substantially and continuously support the foundation’s program.

The Robert F. Kennedy Human Rights Foundation, an independent Swiss-based organization funded by local donations, collaborates with the international NGO Robert F. Kennedy Human Rights (New York). Upholding Robert F. Kennedy's legacy and Switzerland's humanitarian tradition, it envisions a society where everyone respects and protects human rights daily. This is achieved through the free educational program "Speak Truth To Power," which offers Swiss schoolchildren a textbook, an online platform, a play, and a photo exhibition, along with new learning activities developed with partners like Swiss universities and human rights experts.

Members of the Robert F. Kennedy Legacy Circle support the Foundation's educational efforts through donations and can engage closely with the Foundation, participating in events hosted by Robert F. Kennedy Human Rights and the Kennedy Family.
