Funding Program of the Eric Gustav Adler Foundation

The funding program of the Eric Gustav Adler Foundation supports committed initiatives and institutions in Bavaria that are dedicated to expanding communal life. The foundation aims to promote social participation and specifically enable disadvantaged groups to access educational, cultural, sports, and social services. With funding in the form of grants, this program targets non-profit organizations as well as public institutions that implement projects in the fields of education, children and youth, culture, social affairs, vocational training, and work & social services. Priority is given to projects that contribute to improving the personnel, spatial, and material resources of social institutions.

The core objective of the funding is the sustainable strengthening of institutions that provide children, youth, elderly people, and individuals with disabilities in crisis and emergency situations with perspectives and hope. Through financial support for infrastructure investments, the acquisition of specialized equipment, and personnel resources, projects are encouraged that facilitate access to communal activities. The funding also includes measures that bring together people from diverse cultural and social backgrounds to create an inclusive and diverse community. Projects in the areas of general and vocational education, art, culture, and sports receive special attention to offer all participants inclusion and shared experiences.

The funding is provided on an ongoing basis, allowing interested local initiatives and non-governmental, non-profit aid organizations the opportunity to implement targeted measures to improve their offerings. A prerequisite for a grant is the recognition of the funded entity as a tax-privileged organization as well as proof that the requested funds fulfill the foundation’s purpose of promoting inclusion and participation. By specifically supporting investments in infrastructure and personnel resources, conditions are created that strengthen social cohesion and sustainably promote the positive development of educational, cultural, and sports projects. This funding program positions itself as a catalyst for an inclusive and future-oriented community in Bavaria.
