Who we are
Education, creativity,
joy of life and optimism.
The Sir Peter Ustinov Foundation is a charitable foundation for children and was established in 1999 by Sir Peter Ustinov and his son Igor Ustinov. The aim of the Sir Peter Ustinov Foundation is to create better living conditions for children and young people worldwide through access to education and creativity, thus promoting their personal development and giving them the chance of an independent future. The Peter Ustinov Foundation bases its activities on the principles of good foundation practice and is a recognised member of the Association of German Foundations.
We help children around the world
The Sir Peter Ustinov Foundation supports children regardless of their social, cultural or ethnic background. Sir Peter Ustinov made no distinction in times of need. We still follow this guiding principle today. That is why we support carefully selected, experienced and trustworthy children’s aid organisations worldwide in their work on the ground. The Sir Peter Ustinov Foundation provides help where the need is greatest:
In difficult life situations
We help children in difficult life situations by supporting them with vital resources.
In case of social disadvantage
We support socially disadvantaged children who do not have a fair chance due to poverty or educational deficits.
With social exclusion
We help children who are excluded from society and offer them opportunities for integration.
For education and health
We work to improve educational opportunities and healthcare in the poorest regions of the world.
