Support for the DLRG Foundation Water Rescue in the Former District of Fallingbostel

The DLRG Water Rescue Foundation in the former Fallingbostel district supports non-profit DLRG local groups in the Heidekreis with continuously available grants from its foundation fund. The goal is the sustainable prevention of drowning deaths in the region and beyond. Eligible for funding are local club structures that organize swimming training, first aid courses, and disaster protection operations. In particular, volunteer water rescuers as well as youth and senior groups can submit applications to finance the acquisition of training and operational equipment. The foundation sees itself as a reliable partner that contributes to greater safety at bodies of water through financial support and strengthens qualification and prevention programs.

Examples of funded items include swimming boards, rescue equipment, first aid training mannequins, or gear for diving operations and swift water rescue. The funds from the foundation’s endowment enable the timely provision of necessary materials so that local groups can conduct their training and further education measures as well as disaster protection at a high standard. Applications can be submitted at any time – there is no deadline. Non-profit DLRG local groups in the former Fallingbostel district simply submit their applications via the provided form, thereby making an active contribution to water rescue and saving lives in Lower Saxony.
