The purpose of the foundation is to support the planned pastoral care center of the Evangelical State Church of the Canton of Glarus, in particular for the establishment and operation of the pastoral care center, the further training of pastors or pastoral assistants specifically designated for pastoral care, lecture activities related to pastoral care, and acquisitions for the library serving pastoral care. The pastoral care center is now established under the name 'Pastoral Office for Life Counseling' and is supported by the foundation in the sense of the founder. Support for individual persons who take advantage of the counseling is exceptionally possible, provided that the available funds are not used for the other purposes mentioned above.
