The foundation aims to provide financial support to any domestic and foreign educational institutions with exclusively social and/or non-profit purposes, both during the lifetime of the founders and after their death. Educational institutions with social and/or non-profit purposes are understood to be educational, teaching and training institutions (such as schools, boarding schools and academies) that are supported by non-profit organizations and aim to provide disadvantaged people with a chance to receive an education. Furthermore, the foundation aims to provide financial support to people in Switzerland and abroad who are confronted with poverty, illness or disability, as well as to institutions in Switzerland and abroad that in any way support or care for the aforementioned people or educational institutions. The foundation operates exclusively for non-profit purposes and does not pursue any entrepreneurial goals.
