F.G. Pfister Kultur- und Sozialstiftung

Committed to society.

As part of the F.G. Pfister Group, the F.G. Pfister Kultur- und Sozialstiftung is committed to supporting and promoting social, creative and humanitarian projects in Switzerland, in order to strengthen the common good, support disadvantaged groups and make a positive contribution to society.

Objective

Thanks to the Foundation's capital and income, as well as donations from third parties, the aim of the Foundation is to provide comprehensive support and encouragement for social, philanthropic, creative, humanitarian, health-promoting, cultural, visual arts and charitable works and projects in Switzerland.

To this purpose, the Foundation supports works, institutions or projects of general interest, aimed at promoting the common good and/or supporting and promoting disadvantaged groups of people and sections of the population.
The Foundation may make financial contributions for this purpose.
The Foundation is politically and denominationally neutral and does not pursue profit-making or self-help objectives.

Our process

Every year, the Foundation supports two to three concrete, effective and striking individual projects as main partners, which correspond to the Foundation's objective.

Each year, the Foundation also supports a number of smaller projects, or those that correspond to the Foundation's objectives, with appropriate but smaller donations.

The Foundation is also committed to supporting specific projects or entering into multi-year partnerships. The aim is to achieve a lasting impact through selected partnerships, and thus best fulfill the Foundation's objectives.

Some projects we supported
