Our principles and core values<\/h5><\/div>

We support long term holistic projects using local initiatives and representatives with an already existing infrastructure and local leaders we personally know. We strongly believe in using local projects and people to create the best support network and make genuine long-term positive impact. We visit and audit the projects every year to check the developments and ensure correct use of resources. SANNI staff work on a voluntary basis with administrative costs covered by the founding family Schroff. A key policy of the SANNI foundation is for 100% of all donations to always go directly into our projects. Our work is guided by transparency, authenticity, effectiveness and efficiency.<\/p>\n

Our work is characterized by respect<\/span>, joy<\/span>, openness<\/span> and sincerity<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

Stiftungszweck<\/h5><\/div>

The purpose of the foundation is to support the upbringing of children and adolescents by providing household and education support, to combat extreme poverty, promote healthcare and the empowerment of women. The geographical focus is on developing and emerging countries, because the living conditions of many people can be improved there with modest means by European standards.<\/p>\n

In addition, various social projects are also supported in Germany and Switzerland by the foundation located in each country.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

Background<\/h5><\/div>

As successful entrepreneurs, Gunther and Ingrid Schroff wanted to give something back to society and therefore established the Schroff Foundations from their private assets at the end of 1984. Since its establishment, the Schroff Stiftung f\u00fcr soziale Zwecke has supported various social projects in Germany and abroad. One of these projects was with an organization in Thiruvananthapuram (southern India), which initially focused on financing a mobile diabetes centre and arranging sponsorships for children in extreme poverty.<\/p>\n

The values conveyed by her family, wanting to give something back to society, the passion for Asia and the fact that other people also want to support her activities, encouraged Susanne Schroff, the daughter of the founders, to become active in Switzerland (main place of residance) with her own foundation. The SANNI Foundation, which she founded in December 2010, significantly elaborated the activities in Thiruvananthapuram and extended them to Myanmar.<\/p>\n

Finally, in 2021, the Schroff f\u00fcr soziale Zwecke was renamed to SANNI Foundation in order to fully utilize the foundation\u2019s potential and thus help even more people in need.<\/p>\n

Both foundations are closely linked due to Susanne Schroff, the respective chairwoman of the foundation board. This bond is largely strengthened by the fact that the 3rd generation of the Schroff family is now also involved in both foundations.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":6343,"parent":6352,"menu_order":2,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"100-width.php","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-6344","page","type-page","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\nAbout us -
