Brissiaud Philanthropic Foundation
The Calemberger Philanthropist Foundation was founded in 305 AC by Jaecar Typhonus and by the events of 306 AC has transferred ownership to House Ravenstad and renamed to the Brissiaud Philanthropic Foundation, currently headed by Charles Ernst Ravenstad. In an attempt to garner more support for the charities that gave so much to the community yet garnered so little recognition, he decided to found this organisation to support these charities he found worthy by offering his connections to the wealthy and powerful, convincing them, should need be, that charity is something they are interested in donating to.
What is the Brissiaud Philanthropic Foundation ?
The Brissiaud Philanthropic Foundation is an organisation dedicated to helping those causes they see as worthy charitable efforts. This help is offered in various forms, and delivered freely to those charitable efforts that sign up and are deemed worthy.
The Brissiaud Philanthropic Foundation is however not a charity in itself, rather a middleman between those who seek to offer charity and those who have the means of supporting them. The services are however free for those charities that have in fact been deemed worthy causes.
The forms of support that are offered are as follows:
Monetary support.
The Brissiaud Philanthropic Foundation acts as a middleman to any donations received or granted. Oft times these are procured from nobility, but any and all sources are accepted and will be sought after. Should these funds be granted to us on a preliminary basis, we would assure that the cause that would obtain these boons is fully worthy and aligned with the founding principles of the organisation.
Public recognition.
Another way the Brissiaud Philanthropic Foundation offers support to causes is to seek important and respected individuals and convince them to speak of the charity in public occasions. Ranging from simple public occurrences to assemblies of the nobility, this type of support is valuable in it's ability to inspire aid and generally make said charitable effort more well known in the public eye.
Troop support.
A relief effort on a large scale often requires military support. Troops can be assigned by those who command them to help and support such efforts, but it is often hard for a charity to procure a noble willing to lend these. The Brissiaud Philanthropic Foundation aims to help in such matters due to their relationship and contacts within the circles of those able to lend aid.
Staff support.
Ofttimes there are specific roles to be filled in a charitable effort. A school for the poor and unfortunate may in fact offer education, but they require those able to teach to actually succeed in this. For this specific support, the Brissiaud Philanthropic Foundation offers to seek out and contact those who would be able and willing to fulfill such a role.
Contactual support.
Charitable efforts at times fall on deaf ears. People that are often of value to such an effort are more often than not busy with other things. The Brissiaud Philanthropic Foundation wishes to aid those charitable efforts in reaching out to the people they require. Due to its contacts, the call for support should be much clearer and result in a far quicker answer than other attempts.
