Ernst Prost Foun. „People for Peace – Peace for People“

The Menschen für Frieden – Frieden für Menschen Foundation (People for Peace – Peace for People Foundation) is a Germany-based charitable endowment fund established on February 1, 2019, in Leipheim, Germany. It was founded on the notion of peace as the prerequisite for life and prosperity, and it regards itself as a contribution to the efforts to overcome the suffering, displacement and decline war entails. Peace is non-political and non-partisan. Donor Ernst Prost established the fund to help promote peace internationally through diverse peacemaking and peacekeeping measures, activities and programs. Since February 24, 2022, war has been raging in Ukraine. With dismay, great concern and compassion, the board of trustees of the Menschen für Frieden – Frieden für Menschen Foundation has been following the news surrounding the armed attack. Driven by the strong desire to provide humanitarian aid for the Ukrainian civil society, the Menschen für Frieden – Frieden für Menschen Foundation has been working closely with the volunteer initiative "Help Ukraine Center". The foundation's own funds and collected donations are used to purchase essential medical and humanitarian supplies such as medicine, wound care supplies and paramedic equipment. The purchase of military goods and any other equipment deployed in military operations constitutes a violation of German non-profit law and is therefore categorically excluded. The Menschen für Frieden – Frieden für Menschen Foundation is registered under tax number 151/147/00522 with the fiscal authority of Neu-Ulm, Germany. It pursues exclusively and directly tax-privileged purposes within the meaning of Section 51 et seq. of the German Fiscal Code (revenue code). On October 25, 2019, the Neu-Ulm tax authority issued a decision in accordance with Section 60a of the German Fiscal Code indicating compliance with the statutory requirements for exemption from corporation and business tax.
