The Foundation
The aim of the Tauro Foundation is to help children get a good start in life, to sustainably improve their living conditions and to counter the lack of prospects faced by young people. As well as education, the Tauro Foundation sees the creation of economic opportunities as an effective way to achieve a self-determined life.
The Tauro Foundation accepts applications for funding that are in keeping with its purpose. In 2024, the foundation entered into funding partnerships with six selected organisations. The goal of these partnerships is to offer greater planning certainty to these partner organisations and to thus achieve greater impact.
Professionally recognised organisations and institutions with a charitable purpose that are active in one of the areas supported by the Tauro Foundation.
Projects that meet the funding criteria and whose focus is on supporting children and young people in need, as well as on efforts to reduce poverty and hunger.
