During that time he experienced that not only the figures are important, but also trust and personal contacts so that a correct reflection can be made. In general it can be said that the accountant acts as "the in-house doctor of your company".
10 years ago, Karl De Coux was one of the founders of the Stichting van Openbaar Nut Pelicano Foundation. The Pelicano Foundation has a philanthropic purpose. Its sole purpose is the general well-being and the medical, pedagogical and social well-being of disadvantaged children and young people in particular. It also creates awareness among the Belgian population about this matter. Shortly after its foundation, the Pelicano Foundation received the High Protection of Her Royal Highness Princess Astrid. Pelicano Foundation has the fiscal recognition as an institution that assists the protected minors. Royal Decree has given approval for the establishment of a Philanthropic Center within the Pelicano Foundation.
