About the funder

The BGAG Foundation Walter Hesselbach contributes to the social shaping of the future by providing financial resources. It particularly promotes the commitment of young employees as well as the compatibility of work and family life. The foundation supports activities aimed at social integration, acceptance, tolerance, and social balance in everyday life. Its goal is to counteract social inequalities and to promote adequate participation of all population groups in the economy and society—both in terms of sharing in economic growth and through involvement in decision-making processes in public life and the workplace. Furthermore, the BGAG Foundation continues the funding activities of the former Walter Hesselbach Foundation and AHBR Foundation in the fields of social, economic, and natural science research as well as charitable purposes.
