The Anne Frank Foundation in Switzerland finds its inspiration from the diary of Anne Frank who became a worldwide symbol representing all victims of racism, anti-Semitism and fascism. It aims to contribute to better understanding between religions, to serve the cause of peace between people, and to encourage international contacts between the young
It provides Medical Fund for the Righteous with the purpose of guaranteeing basic medical care for non-Jews who risked their lives to save Jews from certain death during the Second World War.
The donation policy of the ANNE FRANK FONDS is based on Otto Frank’s instructions and on decisions made by the Board of Trustees. This policy is guided by Otto Frank’s last will and testament, Anne Frank’s diary, the focus of donations (which is determined each year) and last, but not least the donation budget of the year in question.
The Foundation supports projects in the following thematic areas:
- Promotion of peace
- Links between peoples across cultural, religious and ethnic boundaries
- Education of children and teenagers
