Mission & Vision
Our motto "Empowering Good" stands for active participation and sustainable impact: We take responsibility for the common good by not only providing financial resources but also personally contributing advice and support. Through targeted action and long-term partnerships, we create tangible changes in education, social affairs, culture, science, environment, and development aid.
Target groups
The funding programs are aimed at non-profit organizations, associations, and initiatives based in the Rhine-Main area and at other locations where Metzler is represented (Düsseldorf, Hamburg, Munich, Stuttgart). Projects are supported in the fields of education, upbringing and healthcare, social assistance, cultural and art education, science and research, development aid, as well as nature and animal protection. The foundation places great importance on close support by mentors from Bankhaus Metzler and provides assistance not only financially but also through consulting, networking, and fundraising.
