Revitalizing philanthropy

As donors, we know that giving is the most difficult of all arts. That is why we wish to make a commitment to improving the framework conditions for philanthropy by facilitating exchange between donors and beneficiaries, as well as supporting studies on social needs and ways of responding to those needs. We also seek to stimulate media interest in philanthropy.
