The foundation aims to provide education and training in the school, university and professional fields; to expand the technical, personal and social skills of people who are socially, geographically, health-wise or culturally disadvantaged; to promote music; to protect and promote human rights; and to support other humanitarian, psychosocial, ecological and spiritual concerns. To achieve this purpose, the foundation can in particular support educational projects, musical projects and events, and similar aid projects, as well as take all other measures that may be directly or indirectly useful for the implementation of the foundation's purpose. Non-profit, long-term projects in Switzerland and abroad are supported, with a focus on developing and emerging countries.
