Our Foundation: The Forsthofgut Stiftung

Positive Change

For many years, the Schmuck family has been supporting charitable causes in their home region of Pinzgau, either privately or with the help of the team and guests at the Naturhotel Forsthofgut. Equal rights and opportunities for all: Driven by this concept, Christina and Christoph Schmuck have founded the Forsthofgut Stiftung.

Our mission

Equal rights and opportunities for all: Driven by this thought, Christina and Christoph Schmuck founded the Forsthofgut Stiftung. With their Naturhotel Forsthofgut, the family has been firmly rooted in Leogang for over 400 years. That is why the Forsthofgut Stiftung works primarily in the region. The Forsthofgut Stiftung wants to provide hope to families and children in difficult life situations, strengthen health awareness, and help in the preservation of nature. In doing so, the foundation supports individual strength and creates opportunities to overcome hardships: In this way, the Forsthofgut Stiftung is giving new chances.

€10,000 for Magdalena and her barrier-free home

At the 2021 Christmas Gala at Forsthofgut a total of €10,000 in donations was collected for Magdalena Hirschbichler and her family: This will be used to finance necessary barrier-free modifications to their home. This campaign was also the start of the newly established Foundtion, the Forsthofgut Stiftung. Through this foundation, various projects will be supported in the future - among others in cooperation with the social association "Loigom hoit zom" or with the hotel's own project waldLIEBE for reforestation. With the launch of the Forsthofgut Foundation, many more projects and actions will follow - we're looking forward to it!

Donations for Ukraine

Due to the war in Ukraine, many children and families are in urgent need of help. After an appeal for donations by the Schmuck family, numerous donations were collected together with Team Forsthofgut - because everyone wants to help. Food, hygiene articles, blankets, cushions, clothes, and much more were transported towards the Ukrainian border to help those affected on site.

Badhaus Leogang Donation Campaign

Since 2012, the Badhaus in Leogang has been a place of gathering for all people who have to cope with difficult life situations. Almost all visitors to the Badhaus have one thing in common: they have some baggage, usually more than many others. The Badhaus is a holistic non-profit center that aims to help those people who are not doing so well.

TEAM Forsthofgut is helping - doing good together!

Our Forsthofgut Stiftung is committed to families, children and a healthy life in intact nature in Pinzgau.

Christmas in a shoe box
