questions?
What does the name “Rhein-Donau-Stiftung e.V.” stand for?
The name “Rhein-Donau-Stiftung e.V.” refers both to the origin of the association with its two founding regions of Bavaria and the Rhineland and to its mission. For rivers have always been places of prosperity and culture. We support our partners in our project countries materially and ideally, so that they can develop a rich cultural and economic activity in their homeland.
Since its foundation, the association has had its own endowment capital. The interest generated from this is used to finance the association’s administrative costs.
What does the logo of Rhein-Donau-Stiftung e.V. symbolize?
The logo of the RDS takes up both rivers, the Rhine in green and the Danube in blue. The dots denote the fruits arising from the activities of RDS for the benefit of the people in our project countries.
