Two Worlds.
One Path.
We want to change that.

Our mission
Our mission is to promote tolerance in all areas of culture and international understanding.
Our goal is to break down prejudice and barriers between different groups and pave the way for cultural exchange. We want to use scholarships as a means to give many young people around the world the same opportunity to start their future with an open mind.
Who we are
We are Hans and Sabine. The 4th generation of a family of entrepreneurs. In 2020, our medium-sized family business with 1,000 employees celebrated its 100th anniversary. On that occasion, we set up the Foundation. We wanted the anniversary year to have a lasting impact!
