Making sure young people have access to the best possible education was especially important to our namesake, Dr. Jost Henkel. We have been supporting talented and ambitious young people with individual grants for over 50 years. We have also been a sponsor of the Deutschlandstipendium, Germany’s federal grant program, since 2011.
Individual scholarships
One of the defining features of our foundation is that we take an individual approach to assessing each application. This allows us to look at each case in detail, be flexible in our response, and give students the best possible support.
Deutschlandstipendium
The Dr. Jost Henkel Stiftung also sponsors young talent and up-and-coming academics as part of the Deutschlandstipendium, Germany’s federal grant program, which combines financial support from private civic and social organizations with aid from the federal government.
