FTR Humboldt didn't establish that foundation, it was only named in his honor. The current foundation was established after WW2 by the German state.

The point of noting the existence of the foundation is more that his values are actually not neglected and very much alive today -- those values are actually promoted by the foundation, and those sponsored by the foundation are encouraged to promote those values, too.
