In an interview with British magazine Alliance, Sabrina Grassi, Director General of Swiss Philanthropy Foundation, and Marc Salzmann, Head of Partnerships, talk about the umbrella foundation model, as well as the Swiss foundation landscape and trends. New models for philanthropic vehicles are also discussed, such as donor advised funds, collaborative funds and fiscal sponsorship for philanthropic initiatives.
The traditional view of a philanthropist is someone who has already retired and wants to do something good with their time, but we now have more entrepreneurs in their 50s who are still running the business, are still quite busy in their professional life, but since they have been successful, they want to contribute to society and the umbrella foundation is very convenient
