The Ilse Blank-Mezger-Hesselberger Foundation, based in Munich, was established on 6 February 2023. It goes back to Ilse “Steffi” Blank, who came from an upper-middle-class German-Jewish family in the city. Without descendants of her own, she left her entire estate to the foundation. The Foundation’s mission is to promote art and its preservation, to support research on Jewish life with a focus on Munich and Bavaria, and to encourage historical education and social awareness.
