Burg-Steinfurt Stiftung
About the funder
The Burg-Steinfurt Foundation was initiated by the founders Dirk Zumbansen and Elisabeth Epping and has pursued charitable and benevolent purposes since its recognition by the Münster District Government. It operates actively in the Steinfurt district, conducts fundraising, and owns two properties totaling over 500 m². Its funding priorities include youth and elderly care, education, upbringing and training, art and culture, monument preservation, landscape and environmental protection, as well as local heritage and customs. In its first ten years, the foundation has awarded over €50,000 to educational and social projects for children and youth in the Münsterland region and has supported regional initiatives such as #MattersOfTheHeart, integrative sports projects, and STEM promotion in daycare centers.
