Stiftung des Hohenlohekreises

The Stiftung des Hohenlohekreises was established in November 2008 by the district council as a municipal foundation under civil law. Its objective is to use generated revenues to support projects throughout the entire Hohenlohe district. The focus areas of funding are science and research, monument, art and cultural preservation, nature and environmental protection, as well as local heritage and landscape conservation, education and sports, and care for children, youth, families, the disabled, and the elderly, along with voluntary engagement. Financing is provided through allocations from the Hohenlohe district, donations from the Sparkasse Hohenlohekreis, and endowments from private individuals, companies, and institutions. In the past, for example, funding has supported the acquisition of a mobile 3D sonar device for the DLRG, the bell tower of the Heuberg-Buchhorn citizens' association, an all-terrain emergency vehicle for the DRK Künzelsau, the redesign of a retreat house, and the redevelopment of the Hohenlohe farmers' educational trail.

The Foundation of the Hohenlohe District is committed to using its proceeds to undertake voluntary tasks in the social, cultural, scientific, and ecological fields and to strengthen the common good in the district. It aims to support innovative and charitable projects that contribute to cultural diversity, the preservation of the homeland, and the improvement of the quality of life for all generations in the Hohenlohe District.

Project sponsors in the Hohenlohe district area are supported, particularly non-profit associations and initiatives, municipal institutions, research institutions, schools, youth facilities, and private initiators. The prerequisite is that the projects have a non-profit character, correspond to the foundation's objectives, and provide sustainable benefits for the region and its residents.
