In 1920, Theodor and Eugen Zschokke (both sons of Heinrich Zschokke) established a foundation ("Hilfsfonds") for the descendants of their brother Achilles Zschokke. In 1973, another foundation ("Andreas Zschokke-Fonds") was established for all descendants of Heinrich Zschokke. In 1992, the two foundations were combined and renamed to "Zschokke-Stiftung".

The purpose of the Zschokke-Stiftung is the financial support of all descendants of Heinrich Zschokke (1771-1848) and of their marital partners. The Zschokke Stiftung supports education, provisions and similar purposes in case of need. In addition, activities promoting family ties can also be supported.

The council of the Stiftung (see below) increasingly grants scholarship requests (returnable or non returnable, depending on the situation).

At present, the Stiftung has total assets of 250'000 Swiss Francs.

Requests should be addressed to the president of the foundation. They should contain name, address, telephone and e-mail, as well as details on how you are related to Heinrich Zschokke, reasons for posing the request and the amount of money requested.
