K&H Foundation for a Healthy Society

On 16 February 2021 K&H Bank merged three previous K&H foundations, and its public-benefit foundation now operates under the name K&H Foundation for a Healthy Society.

The Foundation has the same objectives as its legal predecessors, including

  • Promoting and supporting research, organisational activities, awareness raising, methodology sharing, knowledge acquisition, and support and assistance aimed at improving health culture in Hungary, and helping persons in need. Special focus is placed on supporting medical treatment, improving equipment availability in primary care, and sponsoring sports for all.
  • Supporting and encouraging activities underpinning scientific and economic progress and education in Hungary. Incentivising students in public and tertiary education in natural and  social sciences; supporting social sciences research contributing to the faster evolution of Hungarian society, and widely disseminating natural and social science knowledge in public and tertiary education.
  • Promoting social progress by helping and supporting newly established civil society organisations; taking part in identifying social issues. Promoting the preservation and creation of artistic value.

As one of its means to achieve the above objectives, the Foundation issues public calls for applications, such as the MediMagic equipment purchase scheme, widely known for many years, and the Ready, steady, money! financial competition. It also supports activities aligned with its aims on the recommendation of its Board of Trustees.

Please remember that you can donate to K&H MediMagic 1% of your personal income, which may be donated to civil society organisations and foundations:
