Based on the agreements made at the special members meeting in January 2019, a Foundation Friends of Waldorf Education has now been established. This extends our range of possibilities with a new long-term tool. It allows us to preserve estates and bequests that we receive to sustainably ensure the continuation of the Friends’ work on international cooperation or on other fields of work. Those branches of the Friends that do not receive any public funds for their work face the major challenge of paying even the running costs. This is particularly true for our work on international collaboration. In the future, we plan to take the estates that were intended for this purpose and combine them. The goal is to ensure our long-term capability of working for the Waldorf Movement around the world.
