class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Lucerne is the foundation capital of Central Switzerland. With 549 foundations based there, the canton of Lucerne far outnumbers its neighboring cantons in Central Switzerland. Foundations in Lucerne not only receive and accept applications from Lucerne, but are also often the first point of contact for projects and organizations from Zug, Schwyz, Uri, Obwalden, and Nidwalden. Digital platforms and foundation directories such as <a href=\"https:\/\/spheriq.ch\/en\/\">Spheriq<\/a> bring funding organizations, nonprofit organizations, and private donors together and facilitate networking within the nonprofit sector.   <\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-size-24-font-size\">Fundraising &amp; Scholarships: The Foundation Landscape in Lucerne<\/h3>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Education and research, arts and culture, social issues and ethics, and religion and the church are the main areas in which foundations in Lucerne are active. Many foundations focus on providing direct support to people in need. In particular, they support and fund associations, projects, and organizations that concentrate on providing financial assistance, services, or in-kind aid to young families, seniors, people with disabilities, and other socially disadvantaged members of society.  <\/p>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-cover alignfull is-light\" style=\"min-height:50px;aspect-ratio:unset;\"><span aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-cover__background has-background-dim-100 has-background-dim has-background-gradient\" style=\"background:linear-gradient(114deg,rgba(255,0,255,0.32) 0%,rgba(255,0,0,0.65) 98%)\"><\/span><div class=\"wp-block-cover__inner-container is-layout-constrained wp-block-cover-is-layout-constrained\"><div class=\"wp-bootstrap-blocks-row row justify-content-center align-items-center\">\n\t\n<div class=\"col-12 col-md-4\">\n\t\t\t\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-size-24-font-size wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"line-height:1.1\"><strong>For nonprofits:<\/strong> Collect <strong>donations online<\/strong> for your organization and projects or find suitable foundations with clever <strong>research tools<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\t<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"col-12 col-md-4\">\n\t\t\t\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-content-justification-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-3e41869c wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\"><div class=\"wp-block-button is-style-btn-primary is-style-btn-primary--1\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/spheriq.ch\/en\/prices\/\">Discover the offer now<\/a><\/div><\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The city of Lucerne also brings charitable commitment onto the streets and into the lives of the population: 100% of the proceeds from the annual city festival go to the foundation Luzern Hilft. This foundation passes on the funds to charitable projects and associations and ensures a balanced distribution of the funds. That way, the Lucerne City Festival directly benefits people in need from different generations, cultures and urban and rural populations alike. At stiftungschweiz.ch you can find out how to submit an application for your charitable cause to the foundation Luzern Hilft and many other Lucerne-based foundations, and what the requirements are for the various grants. In some cases, you can contact the responsible people directly.    <\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-size-24-font-size\">Well-connected in the Nonprofit Sector of Lucerne<\/h3>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In charitable work, at arts and cultural institutions, and in research, good relationships are almost as important as financial resources.
