Mission & Vision

Our goal is for all children and young people in Germany to start a self-determined life with equal opportunities and possibilities. We support strong children and young people who recognize their potential, seize opportunities, and actively advocate for their own interests as well as those of others.

Target groups

Our funding programs are aimed at children affected by poverty as well as children and young people aged 6 to 21 who proactively engage in political, social, or ecological projects. Furthermore, participatory bodies such as the CHILDREN Children's Advisory Board provide children and young people with a platform to independently decide on funding allocations and experience democratic participation.
