Providing opportunities through training

The Hermann Foundation aims to promote the educational and vocational training of children and young adults, particularly girls and young women, mainly on the African continent. The projects we support sometimes have to build the infrastructure needed for training themselves, such as schools, but also sometimes basic infrastructure such as access to water for hygiene and hospitals for health.

Helping those who need it most

The Hermann Foundation was born of the realization that only high-profile, high-profile projects stand a chance of being supported. Nevertheless, a number of smaller but essential projects are overshadowed by those supported by larger structures that have the means to promote them.

Concrete results

We follow up regularly and maintain close relationships with the organizations we support over the long term. In this way, we can ensure that the support we provide bears fruit and that our objectives are achieved.
