In Germany, a child’s education is still dependent upon its family background: focusing on educational opportunities, our objective is to use cooperation projects to create future prospects in particular for children and adolescents who have had a difficult start in life.

The Haniel Foundation represents a value-centred entrepreneurship - by tradition and confidence. We promote talented future leaders, focussing on sustainable ideas and creative approaches for a social change.

The Haniel Foundation promotes individuals who wish to have a lasting impact on the shape of the future by exploring new avenues with courage and a sense of vision. We champion value-oriented entrepreneurship and support educationally disadvantaged children and adolescents and especially promising up-and-coming managers.
