The One Foundation is a charitable organisation established by Dieter Müller, founder of Motel One.

Its central concern is creating an equitable society in which everyone has the same opportunities to lead a life of their choosing.

To this end, the One Foundation promotes and initiates projects that facilitate personal growth and professional development, particularly in the areas of education, the transition from school to work, and the exploration of new career opportunities.

Through its work, the One Foundation supports SDG 4.

The Foundation's second annual report provides an update on our projects, shows how we measure the impact of our trainee-scholarship, and summarises the key events and milestones of the past year.

This time we focus on the topic of cohesion. In an interview, Dieter Müller, Chair of the One Foundation Board, and Ursula Schelle-Müller, Management Board member, explain the benefits of an open corporate culture and cohesion. Together with some of our project partners, we also asked ourselves how we can achieve cohesion within a team or in society. We present our answers in the form of a video.

For the first time, the One Foundation is awarding scholarships to trainees in the hospitality or gastronomy sector in Germany. The scholarship consists of both monthly financial support and non-material support such as coaching, workshops and interaction with other scholarship holders.

As the foundation aims to contribute to equal opportunities, we would particularly like to encourage people with special challenges to apply.

We aim to use our resources meaningfully – which is why impact is very dear to our hearts.

We use the term ‘impact’ when the aim is to set change in motion. If we want to have a positive influence and truly reach our target audience, we feel it’s important that we do so transparently and effectively.
