Your giving acquires an institution — not a string of one-off transfers.

• You have been giving for some years, yet your giving remains a scattering of one-off transfers with no common frame.
• You want to set a mission and a board that will outlive you, rather than depend on your personal involvement.
• You want to bring your children into the work of giving — to give them a role, not merely an inheritance.

What the House does

The House builds the family its own, lasting instrument of giving in place of one-off donations that leave no institution behind. The foundation gains a board under the family’s control, a defined mission, and an order into which the next generation can be brought. The House designs the structure, registers it in a fitting jurisdiction and runs its governance — binding the foundation into the rest of the family structure.

• The choice of jurisdiction and form of foundation for the family’s aims and its structure.
• Registration of the foundation and the setting of its governance — statutes, board, rules of giving.
• Fixing the mission and the order into which the next generation is brought.
• The ongoing governance and reporting of the foundation under a single mandate of the House.
• Binding the foundation into the rest of the family structure — the holding, the succession, the constitution.

What you get: a registered foundation in the chosen jurisdiction · statutes and by-laws with rules of giving · the minutes of the first board and the governance regulations · a fixed mission with the order for bringing in the next generation

Why this way and not another

• One-off donations do not add up to a line: every year begins anew.
• Giving rests on your personal involvement and ceases the moment you are gone.
• The heirs are not drawn into the work — the capital passes to them, but not the mission.
• There is no structure to fix the intent and carry it through the generations.

What worries you — and the House’s answer

• “The foundation will turn into a bureaucracy I have to maintain.” — The ongoing governance and reporting of the foundation are carried by the House under mandate, not by a staff you hire.
• “The children won’t take it up and the foundation will fade.” — The order for bringing in the next generation is set into the statutes from the very start, not left to chance.
• “I’ll lose control over where the money goes.” — The direction of giving is set by the board under the family’s control; the mission is fixed in the founding documents.

Where this leads

The family acquires its own foundation: with its own mission, its own board, and a place into which the next generation has been brought. Giving ceases to be a scattering of one-off sums and becomes a line the family carries from year to year. And when you are gone, what remains is not the memory of separate transfers but an institution that continues the work.
