The foundation is based in Freiburg im Breisgau and primarily supports projects in the Freiburg region. The foundation places special emphasis on promoting projects that use creative endeavors for personality development or strengthening. The foundation's purposes align with the personal interests and professional inclinations of the founders, Renate Sick-Glaser and her late sister Waltraut Sick. The foundation supports projects in the fields of education, upbringing, music, art and culture, as well as sports for people of all ages and people with disabilities. In addition to financial support, the foundation also offers personal advice and networking for applicants.

The Renate and Waltraut Sick Foundation aims to get people moving, both physically and metaphorically. The foundation promotes sports for people of all ages and individuals with disabilities and supports projects that mobilize those who depend on assistance and support. The foundation sees itself as a grant-making institution and provides financial support to individual projects upon application. Funding is project-specific and always earmarked.
