The "Gutes erlaufen" Foundation is a nationwide active funding institution dedicated to supporting non-profit projects in Germany. The foundation has made it its mission to sustainably promote the New Year's Eve run from Werl to Soest as well as other statutory purposes. Its activities encompass a diverse range of areas, including science, health, arts and culture, as well as monument protection, environmental and nature conservation, and social projects. The foundation operates exclusively within the non-profit, charitable, and ecclesiastical framework, thereby focusing on civic engagement and contributing to the sustainable development of numerous initiatives.

At the core of the "Gutes erlaufen" Foundation's work is the generation of donations, primarily raised through the well-known New Year's Eve run. This charity event, which has already generated an impressive amount of donations, raises funds that are directly allocated to supporting research, public health, youth and elderly care, as well as areas such as education, culture, and the environment. The foundation's commitment also includes projects in sports, civic engagement, and monument preservation. With a broad funding program, the foundation aims to strengthen existing structures and support innovative approaches in various socially relevant sectors.

Eligible for these grants are exclusively tax-privileged, non-profit organizations pursuing statutory purposes. Interested institutions may apply for support by submitting an appropriate funding application. The foundation places great importance on compliance with the requirements, which include affiliation with eligible institutions and proof of tax-privileged status. Through ongoing support, the "Gutes erlaufen" Foundation offers a lasting opportunity to sustainably support projects in different specialist fields and to make a significant contribution to social, scientific, and cultural progress.
