In developmentAbout the foundation
Rooted in care. Guided by dignity.
Supporting people means recognising the families and carers beside them. That belief is at the heart of Maria and Barth Foundation.
Who we are
People, and the people beside them.
At Maria and Barth Foundation, our focus is people: children with disabilities, older people, and those who care for them. We are working towards a care team and a care academy, bringing family support and carer development into the same conversation.
Maria and Barth Foundation supports children with disabilities, older people, and the families and carers who stand beside them.
Our purpose
Care that respects.
