de Clivo - Stiftung is a Zurich-based foundation that provides direct financial support to individuals in need and to smaller humanitarian organizations. Its stated priorities are practical, on-the-ground assistance in medicine, education, self-help, and, in exceptional cases, disaster relief, with a geographic focus on Switzerland and developing countries. The foundation describes itself as politically and religiously neutral, suggesting it favors mission-aligned, nonpartisan relief and capacity-building efforts rather than advocacy work.
General grantmaking to individuals and smaller organizations, likely through case-by-case review rather than a competitive program portfolio. Support appears to be flexible and needs-based, with no indication of large multi-year grants; funding is probably modest and targeted to immediate humanitarian needs.
Applications are likely handled as Gesuche (requests) to the foundation rather than through a broad public grant cycle. Applicants should emphasize urgent need, clear humanitarian benefit, small-organization scale, and direct impact in Switzerland or a developing-country context; align proposals closely with medicine, education, self-help, or exceptional disaster relief.
