Fondation Hans Wilsdorf is a major private Swiss philanthropic foundation tied to Rolex that funds public-interest work, especially in Geneva, across social services, health, training, employment, culture, humanitarian aid, and animal/ecosystem protection. Its portfolio shows a strong preference for ecosystem-style support through affiliated thematic foundations and practical, place-based initiatives that combine grants, loans, and long-term capacity building. Nonprofits with clear public benefit, strong governance, and a Geneva or Switzerland focus are the best fit, especially where the work supports vulnerable populations, vocational pathways, or cultural innovation.

Gives institutional support and project funding to nonprofits, often in Geneva and Switzerland, with some international support for animals and ecosystems. It also funds a network of autonomous thematic foundations that provide grants, honor loans, and financing for social and cultural projects, suggesting a mix of traditional grants and catalytic, program-aligned capital rather than open general call funding.
Apply through the institutional support process for eligible nonprofits with a clear public-interest mission, preferably linked to Geneva or Switzerland and aligned to one of the foundation’s priority themes. Be specific about outcomes, governance, and how the project complements existing local needs; for the thematic foundations, check each entity’s own criteria, as governance and support types vary.
