Dear Donors, Dear Friends and Supporters,

Being alone in a room with bare walls is a very frightening experience. The walls become blank

canvases, upon which children, adolescents and even adults may impose their fears. As we know,

visual art has a profound effect on the human psyche and makes a positive impact on the

emotional state of patients, residents, caregivers and staff. Helping to direct their thoughts to

more soothing associations is a useful adjunct to the healing process and to well-being in general.

Since 2008 we have been building collaborative partnerships with local institutions all over

Europe. Bringing together healthcare institutions, academic institutions, schools, artists, local

communities and generous donors, we work toward our vision of a world in which illness,

accidents and difficult circumstances become a less traumatic and fearful experience thanks to

a reassuring and welcoming atmosphere.

Thanks to our generous donors, in 2017 we have been able to complete therapeutic murals in 18

wards (with 85% of follow-up projects) across 4 countries, bringing us to a total of 160 projects

in 14 countries, and brightening the lives of 3.1 million children, adolescents and adults since

our creation.

The artists created each time bespoke projects, to meet the needs of patients, residents and staff

members. For example we created gigantic murals and pictogrammes to support the integration

and well-being of residents living in the largest refugee centre in Switzerland. We also used

magnetic paint to make our paintings more interactive and make sure they served as storytelling

tools in a home for polyhandicapped adults.

Finally, we continued our efforts to engage the next generation and local community in our

mission through our Kids4Kids Programme, our Corporate Social Responsibility Programme and

some local events such as Celebrate Childhood or the American International Club of Geneva

Thanksgiving Dinner.

As we move forward to 2018 and beyond, we are proud of what we have accomplished in 2017

and excited about the future. We remain very grateful to the energetic team for their

commitment with all projects. Our deepest gratitude and admiration go to the artists for their

talent, dedication and enthusiasm.

LETTER FROM THE PRESIDENT

Our mission: brightening lives

Clinical environment in any type of healthcare centre can provoke fear and disarray among patients and

residents. Our vision is a world in which illness, accidents and aging become a less traumatic and

fearful experience thanks to an institution’s reassuring and welcoming atmosphere.

We use music and art to improve healing and promote well-being, in social and medical institutions

where children or adults spend time away from home.

Our impact: increasing well-being

Over 650 scientific publications and years of experience have shown that the environment has a huge

impact on patients’ recovery and wellbeing. Through our paintings we help to:

Our methodology: bespoke projects

Our team of artists paint therapeutic murals based on the principles of art therapy and evidence-

based design in hospitals, special needs institutions, orphanages, psychiatric centres and nursing

homes. This improves the well-being of the patients, residents, families and staff.

We always work in close collaboration with the staff of the chosen institution to create a project fully

adapted to their needs. The result is a tailored-made project achieved in a quick, efficient and cost-

effective manner.

Brighten and improve working conditions (reported by 100% of staff): a welcoming

environment has a positive influence on the treatment of patients and wellbeing of the staff

(their motivation is increased, there is less running and shouting).

Reduce anxiety (reported by 89% of patients, families and staff): a soothing atmosphere

brings comfort to patients and their families (patients are less agitated, children cry less).

Encourage interaction (reported by 96% of staff) and improve communication (reported

by 91% of families): caregivers use the murals as a storytelling tool to engage with the

patients, communicate, stimulate, orient, and explain any planned activities (children are

distracted during treatments, older patients are stimulated).

“The murals create a reassuring environment, which reduces the anxiety of the patients and allows them to forget for a moment the reason of their disarray, as a sort of magic thought, these murals are a vector of

provides care to mentally-impaired adults who require

constant individual human and technical care.

The murals contribute to reduce patients’ anxiety and

psychological pain, to regulate their behavioural

disorders, and improve the well-being of families and

staff. To create a welcoming and reassuring

atmosphere, the artists created soothing murals

with local landscapes, fauna and flora.

are drinking radiocontrast agent and illustrate the contrast agent's journey through the body. This always

arouses curiosity and brings a playful aspect into the examination.”

“It is proven by psychologists that the murals reduce the anxiety of the children, but they also help the parents

a lot. Hospitals are not pleasant places for anyone. (...) If you are placing an IV in a child or you need to give

them a test that scares them, it helps a lot to distract them with the paintings on the walls.”

Participants 50 students

Engagement Service and Action (MYP)

Young students created welcoming messages for refugees.

"I want to make the children's lives lighten up" said Oliver (Year 7).

Further we transformed pillars at La Grande Boissière Campus so that they become an interactive and educational

canvas for the kids arousing curiosity and imagination.

We have been engaging students as part of their Service in Action programmes for 3 years.

Through this programme, children and adolescents develop their creativity, team spirit and empathy byreflecting on what being hospitalised and then creating tools (activity booklets, door signs, etc.) to brighten thelives of patients/residents of social and medical institutions. The programme takes them from the initialreflection to implementation in local institutions. This Kids4Kids programme has been received with greatenthusiasm, and will continue in 2018!

To honour and thank the students we organised ‘Anouk Awards’ in presence of their art teachers and thedirectors of the various beneficiary institutions (Clair Bois-Chambésy, Hospice général and Fondation Officiellede la Jeunesse).

“Both parents and nurses report that the music programme is used daily over many months with each child and always has the

desired effect to either stimulate or to calm .”

Judith Wieland, Head Nurse at University Children Hospital, Zurich

This Music Listening Programme was created with Dr. Petra Kern, music therapist, in 2012. It has been used inthe Paediatric Rehabilitation Centre of the Children’s Hospital in Zurich since 2013 for patients with severephysical and mental disabilities (such as severe cerebral palsy or trauma).

Nurses use the programme to calm the patients during

pain or other troubled episodes, for example dystonia,

muscle spasms, general pain. It is also used to help

patients fall asleep during wakeful nights, and to get up

in the morning, so as not to miss their physical therapy

sessions.

Parents welcome the programme and look forward to

using it with their children. It provides an enjoyable

activity to share, and can be structured into the day and

helps to relieve the feeling of powerlessness.

CORPORATE SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY

Trafigura employees raced the 180km circumference of Lake Leman

during Cyclotour. The money raised was matched by Trafigura

Foundation. The funds allowed us to create murals and create a sense of

welcome in the largest refugee centre in Switzerland (see Hospice

général, Geneva, p. 8).

La Vaudoise co-sponsored two projects towards the well-being of

hospitalised children in the town and institution of their choosing (see

Inselspital, Bern, p. 7 and p. 15).

We work with companies to create tailor-made programmes fitting their goals.

We organise Community Days for companies: these fun and purposeful

days focus on empathy and creativity and allow employees to produce art

which complements our therapeutic murals in local medical institutions,

and has a positive impact on patients’ recovery and well-being.

“I liked very much painting with colours. It was relaxing and I was happy with my result. I hope that the pictures will help to adorn hospitals and bring the children some colour and joy.”

“Thanks, I can imagine that these small things can really make a difference, I was happy to participate!”

We believe in engaging local communities to create social impact through art.

How Anouk Foundation fits into the community

We create community-engaged art: working

directly with the community we create tailor-

made projects in close collaboration with the

artists, the staff (doctors, nurses, educators) and

the patients.

We have 9 years’ experience working with 75

local institutions all over Europe; we build

strong partnerships bringing together healthcare

institutions, academic institutions, schools,

community centres, artists and local

communities, to work together creatively on

common goals, mobilise action, develop

solutions and bring about positive impact.

Celebrating Childhood

Engaging the local community

Our Celebrate Childhood event took place on the 8th of March in Geneva.

All proceeds went towards two upcoming local projects in a children's emergency home in collaboration

with Fondation Officielle de la Jeunesse; and at an Accomodation Centre for refugees, in partnership

with Hospice général.

This year the American International Club of Geneva invited us to their Thanksgiving Dinner and soirée

and chose Anouk Foundation as a recipient for their silent auction. We are extremely grateful for this

opportunity to present our work to the AIC members and the funds they raised to support our local

projects.
