Haug-Taxis-Stiftung is a Stuttgart-based foundation that mainly supports environmental protection, especially nature and animal conservation, alongside projects that promote Christian faith and other charitable organizations with similar aims. Its best-documented funding is a recurring school-based competition that engages primary and lower secondary students in environmental and nature topics tied to the curriculum, suggesting a strong interest in early environmental education and local community impact. The foundation appears to favor practical, mission-aligned initiatives rather than broad open-ended grantmaking.
Small local grants and prizes, including an annual school competition with awards ranging roughly from $25 to $2,500; giving appears program-specific and likely limited to aligned projects in Germany, especially the Stuttgart area.
Watch for the annual Naturforscher-Wettbewerb within the school year and coordinate through the listed contact person (Alexandra Ehmann) for details. Applications appear to be tied to school participation and curriculum-based environmental projects, so proposals should emphasize nature, animal protection, and hands-on student engagement rather than general institutional support.
