Support for the Duderstadt Community Foundation

The Bürgerstiftung Duderstadt continuously supports charitable projects involving children and youth in the Duderstadt area and its surroundings. Grants are available for initiatives in the fields of education, social affairs, rural development, commitment to social cohesion and democracy, as well as vocational training and further education. Eligible applicants include non-profit organizations, foundations, associations, interest groups, public institutions, and private individuals based in Duderstadt or the immediate vicinity. Funding covers both investment costs as well as personnel and fee expenses, along with other project-related expenditures. The board meetings regularly decide on submitted applications – applications can be submitted at any time. Evaluation criteria include the level of innovation and the objectives of the project, the benefit for the young target group, sustainable impact aspects, and the public visibility of the Bürgerstiftung through the project.

For the application, a completed funding application, a detailed project description, a financing plan, and proof of non-profit status are required. Projects that strengthen the interaction and development of children and youth in Duderstadt find a reliable source of support here. The Bürgerstiftung Duderstadt places great importance on transparency and sustainability: all funding amounts are used in a purpose-bound manner in close coordination with the applicants. Through continuous local support, the foundation makes an important contribution to strengthening social cohesion in the Lower Saxony region.
