The Foundation


The Hedwig and Robert Samuel Foundation (Samuel Foundation) was founded in 1932 and is a non-profit foundation with private rights focussing on promoting vocational training. It initiates and carries out its own relief projects, which mainly concentrate on Central America and Asia. It is based in Dusseldorf. The relief projects are funded through the Foundation's own capital, donations and co-financing.
The Samuel Foundation is the "Foundation for Education". Its target is to provide occupational qualifications for a broad level of the population in order to push forward the urgently needed further development for poor nations and alleviate the misery of the people living there. The Foundation’s work focuses on children and teenagers. Helping them is the only way to break the vicious circle of poverty and the absence a future perspective.
