Building a better future
At Hilti, we believe that entrepreneurship and social responsibility go
hand-in-hand. This is a belief we’ve held strongly throughout our company
history, inspired by the personal commitment of our founder Martin Hilti and
the Hilti family. We support activities that contribute to the general welfare
of our society, wherever we work around the globe – which is now in more than
120 countries worldwide. We want to help people to build better futures,
helping them to help themselves and making a real and sustainable improvement
to the way they live.
OUR DONATIONS AND SPONSORSHIP
We support not-for-profit organisations and projects, which help improve
social and cultural co-existence. Our focus is on education and science,
culture and the arts, as well as social issues.
OUR TEAM MEMBERS’ COMMITMENT
Our Hilti team members get involved in a variety of voluntary local
projects such as renovating buildings, laying out gardens or constructing
parks. All this helps make the world around us a better place. But that’s not
all. When there’s an emergency or catastrophe such as a typhoon, our team
members donate cash or items that are needed, or they even go in person and
lend a helping hand. This commitment is all guided by our local Hilti offices
working closely with the Hilti Foundation.
THE HILTI FOUNDATION
The Hilti Foundation was set up in 1996 as a charitable foundation of the
Martin Hilti Family Trust. Its mission is to improve the quality of life for
underprivileged people by helping them to help themselves in a real and
sustainable way. The Hilti Foundation supports organisations, which make an
outstanding and measurable contribution towards solving social problems by
providing funds and expertise.
The Hilti Foundation concentrates on six fields of action:
1. Affordable housing
2. Community development
3. Culture, science and education
4. Disaster relief
5. Professional training and education
6. Social entrepreneurship
