The foundation was established with a fortune of 6 million marks and several buildings on the Tornow, a peninsula in the south of Potsdam in the Templiner See . The peninsula on which the foundation site is located was renamed Hermannswerder .

The main activities of the foundation are the operation and maintenance of day-care centers, elementary schools, grammar schools (boarding high school: Evangelisches Gymnasium Hermannswerder ) and a youth welfare facility (oasis), technical schools and vocational schools for social professions and geriatric care schools, facilities for the accommodation, care and support of elderly and disabled people.

The foundation opened the first Protestant school in the new federal states. She received special attention when she accepted half a million euros as a gift from the Potsdam-Mittelmark district so that she could open a private high school in Teltow and thus relieve the district of 5 million that it would otherwise have had to spend on high school students.
