The Peter Jensen Stiftung is a non-profit organization that is primarily dedicated to promoting young craftsmen and supporting children and young people in their career choices. Founded by the brothers Peter, Walter and Martin Jensen, the foundation pursues an active and practice-oriented philosophy with the motto "MACHEN" (DOING). It is committed to convincing young people, supporting trainees and promoting young journeymen in the skilled trades in order to make a sustainable contribution to securing skilled workers [3][4].
The foundation is financed by a clearly defined distribution key of the family profits: 70% flows into company growth and substance preservation, 10% secures the family, and 20% is specifically invested in various social projects. Through this financing structure, the Peter Jensen Stiftung secures its activities and projects in the long term [1].
The foundation's projects are wide-ranging and, in addition to promoting skilled trades, also include numerous social and school-related initiatives, so that children and young people are supported in various areas of life. These include workshops, learning fields for the SHK trade (sanitary, heating, air conditioning), factsheets and specially developed programs such as "Azubistart leichtgemacht" (Trainee start made easy), which optimally prepare young people for their professional future [1][4].
Sustainability and social responsibility are central values of the Peter Jensen Stiftung. The foundation not only promotes qualified specialists, but is also committed to long-term educational projects and social integration. In addition, the company itself demonstrates a high degree of responsibility towards its employees through numerous attractive social benefits and sustainable personnel development, which also lives the social basic idea internally [5].
Overall, the Peter Jensen Stiftung is characterized by its holistic commitment to promoting young talent, social projects and sustainable management. This makes it an important pillar for supporting young people in their entry into crafts and professions, coupled with a strong understanding of values and a sustainable future orientation [1][3][4].
