I have come across this in a CV I am currently translating and can't find anywhere what its equivalent is in English. Can anyone help me with the English translation?
Many thanks in advance.

patronal trust/foundation
in German it would be "schirmherrschaftliche Stiftung", especially used in ecclesiastical texts. Perhaps you could say "Patronage-inspired/based trust"

This is probably a company's charitable trust, perhaps to benefit employees. But are you sure it needs to be translated? If it's the name of an employer it should be left in German, perhaps with a few words of explanation.
