About the funder

The Herbert Funke Foundation is a non-profit foundation dedicated to supporting visually impaired and blind individuals. It funds projects worldwide that have a charitable and public-benefit focus in the fields of healthcare, science and research, arts and culture, as well as direct aid for those in need. Its primary concern is the improvement of the social, health, and cultural living conditions of visually impaired and blind people through financial grants to third parties (funding foundation), without conducting operational project work itself.
