The Carls Foundation is committed through a funding program that supports innovative and socially relevant projects in the fields of health, upbringing and education, science, as well as culture in Königstein im Taunus. The funding model is based on a grant that subsidizes project proposals with up to 5,000 euros. The foundation places particular emphasis on project ideas that offer practical solutions and new impulses in the aforementioned areas. Its work traces back to the founding by the couple Ursula and Otto Wilhelm Carls and reflects their long-standing dedication to charitable initiatives.
