Endowing

With your endowment to the foundation's capital (“Vermögensstock”) you support the University of Mannheim Foundation in a long term and sustainable way. Therefore, endowments increase the foundation capital, i.e., they are not spent and have to be preserved for the foundation. Endowments sustainably improve the financial position of a foundation. They are tax-advantaged and can be made for a specific purpose or as an unrestricted gift to the organization. Key topics such as the digital, academic and international future of the University of Mannheim can only be addressed with the help of endowments. We greatly appreciate your support! 

You now also have the option to send us a capital contribution online.

Why do people make endowment contributions? A donor shares her story.

In memory of our father and my husband, CAFER YILMAZ, who passed away in January 2021, my children and I decided to support the University of Mannheim Foundation.

Through our endowment contribution, which aims to support students in financial need with scholarships, we hope to help young people. We are convinced that higher education and the personal development that comes with it can provide essential foundations for integration, openness to the world, and a civic-minded and supportive society. Since we both came from modest backgrounds, university studies were the key and the starting point of our life paths.

My children and I know that talent is widespread, but real opportunities are not. In his memory, we therefore see it as our shared responsibility to promote the education and development of future generations of students and committed citizens.
