Funding of the Citizens' Foundation Ostholstein

The funding from the Bürger-Stiftung Ostholstein supports sustainable and diverse engagement in the Ostholstein region. This grant is aimed at private individuals, non-profit organizations, and companies that actively wish to contribute to shaping their community. The initiative enables the increase of the foundation’s assets through endowments, donations, and contributions, thereby realizing a wide range of regional projects. With the overarching goal of promoting charitable initiatives in areas such as education, monument preservation, environmental and climate protection, social cohesion, as well as culture and media, the Bürger-Stiftung sends a clear signal for social solidarity and participatory involvement.

At the core of the funding is the idea of providing financial resources specifically for local projects while simultaneously increasing the motivation of citizens and companies to engage voluntarily. This targeted support makes it possible to sustainably establish innovative ideas and proven initiatives. Since the grants are awarded exclusively within the Ostholstein district, local actors directly benefit from the strengthening of the regional network. The funding program covers various areas of engagement such as child and youth support, sports, social affairs, energy efficiency, as well as infrastructure and urban development projects, contributing to further improving the quality of life on site.

The Bürger-Stiftung Ostholstein acts as a catalyst for civic engagement and promotes interdisciplinary exchange between different regional stakeholders. Through cooperation with other foundations, associations, federations, and institutions, synergies are utilized that enable the full exploitation of regional potentials. The funding encourages active shared responsibility and creates a strong foundation for future projects that invigorate coexistence and social progress. With this integrative approach, not only financial resources but also know-how and commitment are pooled to make Ostholstein more livable and to sustainably strengthen regional cohesion.
