In the best tradition of civic commitment, the Elbphilharmonie Hamburg Foundation was founded under private law in October 2005 at the initiative of Bankhäuser M.M.Warburg & CO and HSH Nordbank in order to jointly foster realization of the project of the century, the Elbphilharmonie Hamburg.
The goal of the Elbphilharmonie Hamburg Foundation is to raise short and long-term donations from citizens and companies. Thanks to their generous donations, a major contribution has already been made to realizing the building. However, a leading world concert house requires not only outstanding halls and excellent acoustics, but also high-quality orchestras and an attractive program of events. Thus, a central concern of Elbphilharmonie Hamburg Foundation is not only to raise short-term donations for the construction work, but to attract long-term donations to the foundation’s capital. The revenue from the steadily growing capital is thus already being used, and this will be even more the case after 2011, to support a highly varied concert program, music instruction for children and young people as well as innovative projects. Long-term donations on any scale are therefore most welcome. The Elbphilharmonie Hamburg Foundation initiates and coordinates advertising and fund-raising activities to promote the Elbphilharmonie Hamburg.
As part of its own ad campaigns and in collaboration with partners from the Hamburg business community, the foundation appeals to citizens and corporates alike, encouraging them to enthusiastically support this project for Hamburg’s future. The wealth of opportunities ranges from the sale of the official supporter’s pin, via letters appealing for short- and long-term donations, through to patronage of individual sections of the building complex.
