I.M. LEIENDECKER STIFTUNG

The I.M. Leiendecker Foundation is a legally recognized foundation under civil law based in Buchholz (Nordheide). It was established on the basis of a will by the founder Ingeborg Leiendecker and is exclusively dedicated to the charitable support of people with disabilities. With an initial endowment of approximately €188,196.19 and thanks to continuous donations and additional contributions, the foundation supports both projects of other tax-privileged organizations and direct individual assistance to disabled children, adolescents, and adults. In recent years, the foundation has financed, for example, inclusive sports facilities, therapy, and inclusion measures on site.

The mission of the I.M. Leiendecker Foundation is to sustainably empower people with disabilities in need through financial grants and project-based support. It aims to dismantle barriers and enable inclusion in sports, education, and everyday life by utilizing the returns from the foundation’s assets and targeted donation funding. The foundation acts selflessly, focuses on the long-term preservation of its assets, and pursues the goal of achieving concrete, sustainable improvements for people with disabilities.

The funding measures are aimed at individuals in need with disabilities, particularly children and adolescents in the Harburg district and the surrounding region. The foundation supports both individuals and projects by associations, kindergartens, schools, and municipal institutions that seek to implement inclusive sports and therapy programs or barrier-free infrastructure.
