Gemeinnützige Pöschl-Familien- Stiftung

The Gemeinnützige Pöschl-Familien-Stiftung, founded by Dr. Ernst and Franziska Pöschl, is committed both domestically and internationally to youth and elderly care, education and vocational training, welfare services, environmental and nature protection, as well as development cooperation. In accordance with the principle of "help for self-help," the foundation supports projects that offer disadvantaged children and youth, as well as other social and ecological initiatives, a sustainable perspective.

"There is only one world and all people on the planet are equal." This guiding principle shapes the actions of the foundation and its staff. Motivated by Christian charity and an awareness of historical injustices, the founders advocate for a fairer distribution of opportunities and resources. Education and training are regarded as central keys to creating dignified living conditions in the long term and to realizing the principles of freedom, equality, and fraternity.

The funding programs primarily target disadvantaged children and youth worldwide, as well as non-profit organizations, projects, and initiatives in the fields of education, upbringing, youth and elderly care, environmental and nature conservation, and development cooperation. Both local projects in the home region of Landshut and international partners are supported to uphold the principle of equal opportunities.
