ABOUT US

60 Years of Trust, Led by the House of Wittelsbach

What began as a small aid association, founded by Duke Albrecht and Duchess Marita, became the Hilfsverein Nymphenburg Foundation in 2013 on the initiative of Duke Franz. The original association continues to exist as a supporting organization, while the active project work has since been led by Prince Ludwig. We continue to support communities with a network of dedicated experts, volunteers, and donors — across Europe and Africa.

Our Visions

By leveraging a dedicated network of experts, volunteers, and donors, we implement projects that address pressing needs—whether reducing poverty, supporting vulnerable populations, or delivering critical healthcare—always acting with transparency, respect, and efficiency

We strive to make a measurable difference in the lives of those we serve. Our goals include alleviating hardship, promoting long-term development, strengthening social services, and raising awareness about global inequalities. At the same time, we aim to cultivate a network of committed supporters who share our commitment to compassion and practical action.

The work of the Hilfsverein Nymphenburg Foundation is guided by enduring virtues: humanity, empathy, and respect for human dignity; responsibility and accountability in managing resources; sustainability in fostering self-help and long-term impact; and cooperation, ensuring that our efforts are amplified through partnerships and community engagement. These virtues form the backbone of every project we undertake
