Josef und Fanny Wiedemann Stiftung - Stipendien für Studierende aus Türkheim

Wiedemann Foundation scholarship (Türkheim)

You will receive a sum of monthly scholarship, as well as one-off grants for books and learning materials. The exact amounts are not published; the foundation determines them based on your individual circumstances. It may also cover the costs of additional tuition if you have to miss lessons for an extended period due to illness, as well as the costs of materials you require during your studies. Josef and Fanny Wiedemann set up the foundation in 1963 to support gifted pupils from Türkheim whose parents are on low incomes.
