In the field of philanthropy, J&T Finance Group focuses on protecting vulnerable children and helping the socially disadvantaged and the disabled, sponsoring sport and culture as well as supporting its employees.

The purpose of the Foundation was to collect, systematize, and provide information concerning the history of the Hungarian minority in Romania, with a special focus on the period after 1989. One further aim was to provide an institutional background for Hungarian social scientific research in Cluj, especially in political science and contemporary history. With this end in view, the Foundation regularly organizes roundtable discussions and seminars, and it continuously enlarges its collection of manuscripts, the collection of audio materials (interviews) and documentaries, the collection of periodicals (beginning in 1990), and its library.

The Jan Hus Educational Foundation is an international, non-political, educational and cultural organisation founded to support the cultural opposition, the development of education and freedom in the former Czechoslovakia. The organisation was established in Oxford, the first meeting held on July 8^th, 1980. Until 1989, the Jan Hus Educational Foundation was established abroad and developed in several branches (Great Britain, France, Canada, USA, Belgium, Germany). Its activities focused mainly on creating a network of underground universities, translating and publishing works by significant Western thinkers in samizdat, organising and supporting other independent cultural activities.

The Foundation has been operated under the same name till the present day. In 1990, the seat was moved to Brno and covered the entire geographical area of ​​the former Czechoslovakia with various organisational changes. The transformation of the political and social situation after the Velvet Revolution has slightly modified the focus of the Foundation, but its goal has been and is still very similar - to support educational activities and strengthen civil society.
