The funding strategy of the Erika and Conrad Schnyder Foundation focuses on three core areas: emergency relief, poverty and inequality, and cultural heritage. In the area of emergency relief, the Foundation supports organisations that provide protection and practical assistance to people facing acute crises. The focus is on particularly vulnerable groups, especially children and families. In the field of poverty and inequality, the Foundation supports projects in Switzerland that strengthen education, integration and equal opportunities. The focus is on children and young people, with the aim of improving their long-term participation in society. Within its cultural heritage funding area, the Foundation supports the preservation and restoration of historic buildings and places, provided they are publicly accessible and remain active through social or cultural use. The Erika and Conrad Schnyder Foundation works with a long-term perspective and selects its project partners with care. It accompanies projects with a clear focus on impact and responsibility. The Foundation is a member of SwissFoundations and aligns its work with the Swiss Foundation Code.
