The Alters-Stiftung-Eglisau foundation supports elderly people in our community who are in financial need with extraordinary amounts. Within its financial means, it grants subsidies for extraordinary, purposeful purchases and events that make the lives of the residents of the senior center easier or more varied and pleasant. If there is a need, the foundation also supports older and care-dependent people from Eglisau outside the senior center with contributions, regardless of their religious affiliation or their political and social status. Furthermore, it promotes all community-owned measures and institutions (e.g. tasks of external elderly and nursing care) that are a help to aging people.
