Stiftung Fritz Bösch focuses on helping young athletic talent in Switzerland develop and succeed, with a clear emphasis on junior and emerging elite athletes rather than broad charitable causes. The foundation appears especially interested in athletes aged 16+ and institutions that support youth sports development, with Lyss and the surrounding Swiss sports ecosystem as a priority geography. Beyond direct financial support, it also invests in practical capacity building through a free workshop on self-marketing and sponsorship skills for athletes.
Provides direct financial support to young athletes and supporting institutions, likely on a selective and relationship-driven basis, plus twice-yearly free one-day capacity-building workshops through I Believe In You. Support appears to be tailored, sports-specific, and focused on long-term talent development rather than open-call general grants.
Check eligibility carefully: the foundation targets young athletes in Switzerland, generally age 16 and older, and institutions supporting junior sports development. For the workshop, expect a free capacity-building seminar offered twice per year rather than cash funding; for financial support, applicants should likely present a clear athletic development plan, sponsorship need, and Swiss connection, especially to Lyss if relevant.
