Your access to charitable activities

We create the best possible conditions for working for the common good.

For effective charitable activities

Financial commitment provides the underpinnings of a strong and dynamic society. Established by Reichmuth & Co more than 20 years ago, the Rütli-Foundation is an independent umbrella foundation for people who want to do charitable work.

Setting up your own foundation is often a very costly process and takes up a great deal of time and effort. You also face start-up fees and running costs which are charged to the foundation’s capital and eat into the donations. The Rütli-Foundation offers legal, management and tax services and supports you in achieving your goals for the common good efficiently and cost-effectively.

ACCORDING TO YOUR NEEDS

Sub-foundation

You take care of your projects, we take care of the administration.

Returns for charity

You want to make some of your assets available to the public good for a limited period of time

Independent foundation

You want to pursue your charitable goals that appeal to the public

«Your generosity can do a lot of good. The Rütli-Foundation can help you turn your plans into reality: uniquely, simply and effectively.»

Eric Lütenegger

Chairman of the Rütli-Foundation
