Application for Individual Case Assistance (Financial Need) – Glücksstunden Children's Foundation

The Glücksstunden Children's Foundation continuously provides financial individual assistance in the form of grants in Bavaria to enable children and adolescents with special support needs to develop without worries. Private individuals whose children require medically or therapeutically recommended measures due to financial hardship or a disability may submit an application. The funding program covers measures and therapies in the social and health-related fields: these include, for example, physiotherapy, occupational therapy, or speech therapy treatments as well as specialist medical interventions. With the funding objective of facilitating access to meaningful therapy forms, the offer is explicitly aimed at families in need who would not be able to cover necessary costs without additional support.

Eligible expenses include all costs directly related to the implementation of therapies and specialist medical measures. A prerequisite for a positive decision is proof of financial need as well as endorsement by a treating physician, therapist, or the youth welfare office. The foundation evaluates applications based on the urgency of the need and the professional recommendation. A formal application form can be requested and submitted at any time, as there are no exclusion deadlines. The board decides promptly on the grant, taking into account a regional focus in Bavaria. Through this tailored individual assistance, affected families receive quick and unbureaucratic support to sustainably improve the quality of life of their children.
