The Stiftung Hilfswerk 20. Juli 1944 (now Stiftung 20.

Later it also provided support and advice for the surving family members of resistance fighters in general. It is also involved with organising conferences and symposiums on resistance-related themes, academic research, active involvement with school groups, and preparation for annual commemorative days.
