Set up your own Sub-Foundation

The Steinfeld Monastery Foundation was set up in 2004 with the aim of promoting institutions and apostolates run according to the ideals of the Salvatorians, especially at Steinfeld Monastery.

In addition to the realization of the purpose through its own support of the Salvatorians in various areas, the Steinfeld Monastery Foundation can also function as an umbrella foundation for other independent or dependent foundations.

Umbrella foundations act as service providers; they guarantee the long-term organizational form required for a foundation and guarantee the investment of assets and reporting. In particular, legally dependent foundations – so-called sub-foundations – are usually designed as grant-making foundations without their own project work.

The sub-foundation is not a second-class foundation, but a good alternative if you feel connected to the Salvatorians and Steinfeld Monastery and would like to support their development in the long term.

By setting up a foundation under the umbrella of the Steinfeld Monastery Foundation, you can leave a lasting legacy.

Your foundation can be set up during your lifetime or upon death, taking into account significant tax advantages. The foundation can be set up quickly and easily, given your own name and given a statutory focus and thus the promotion of a specific area of ​​responsibility within the scope of the activities of the Salvatorians – e.g. B. in cultural or spiritual terms – serve.
