Support for the Wetzlar Community Foundation

The Bürgerstiftung Wetzlar promotes voluntary engagement in the Hessen region by supporting non-profit organizations, educational institutions, and public agencies in implementing sustainable projects in the fields of education, social affairs, culture, construction and monument preservation, as well as vocational training and infrastructure. The foundation's goal is to strengthen local initiatives in the long term and to enrich social cohesion through financial grants. Particularly young people, persons with disabilities, and groups committed to civic engagement benefit from the funded measures. Whether STEM workshops in kindergartens, care services in the social sector, or restoration measures on historic buildings – the foundation contributes to sustainably improving the quality of life and cultural cohesion in Wetzlar.

Eligible for funding are associations, non-profit organizations, and public institutions based in or operating within Wetzlar. Applications can be submitted continuously, as funds are allocated on an ongoing basis. Supported expenses include, among others, material costs, project supplies, and event expenses. Decision-making is guided by the scope of regional benefit, professional quality, and sustainability of the project. The straightforward application process allows ample room for creative project ideas and flexible implementation periods. Interested applicants can find detailed information on funding requirements and submission formalities directly from the Bürgerstiftung to professionally realize and establish their projects step by step in the long term.
