Kinder- und Jugendstiftung des Rotary Clubs Ahlen

The Kinder- und Jugendstiftung des Rotary Clubs Ahlen is a non-profit foundation dedicated exclusively to charitable purposes. Its mission is to promote the education and upbringing of young people as well as youth welfare. Primarily, it supports projects in the Ahlen area and the surrounding southern district, for example through the awarding of grants (e.g., "Silent Heroes"), the financial support of school-based and extracurricular educational programs, sports clubs, film projects, and other local initiatives aimed at strengthening social skills and cultural participation.

The foundation aims to support young people in their personal and social development and to enable equal opportunities. Through targeted project funding, it seeks to assist children and adolescents in Ahlen and the surrounding area in education, upbringing, and social engagement. All activities are carried out on a voluntary basis to ensure that funding is fully allocated to the projects.

The funding programs are aimed at children and young people of all age groups in the city of Ahlen and the southern district area. Recipients include individuals, school classes, youth groups, as well as non-profit organizations and associations committed to strengthening social, cultural, or sporting activities for young people. A particular focus is placed on low-threshold offerings that reach disadvantaged families or those at risk in their development.
