About us
FOUNDATIONS IN LITERACY was established in 2024 with the mission to promote literacy in all its forms. We believe literacy is essential to many areas of life, and seek both to develop and support projects in the fields of reading, language arts, intergenerational communication, and children’s and young people’s literature.
How we help
We offer grants for literacy projects, one-time donations for library collection development, as well as referrals and networking opportunities with our partner organizations.

We are always looking for innovators and educators intent on finding new and exciting ways to further literacy, both in Switzerland and abroad. If you have a project for which you are seeking funding, or if you are starting out in the field of literacy and seeking networking opportunities, we are happy to hear from you.
