Funding of the Elisabeth Kleber Foundation of the Cooperative of Independent Trade Unionists eG

The Elisabeth Kleber Foundation of the Baugenossenschaft freier Gewerkschafter eG supports innovative projects in the Hamburg metropolitan area through a targeted grant procedure. The focus is particularly on initiatives in the fields of child and youth development, intercultural encounters, and services for seniors. The foundation exclusively addresses non-profit organizations that make a significant contribution to social integration and quality of life in Hamburg through their commitment. As part of the application process, a concise application, a detailed project description, and a transparent cost calculation must be submitted—this enables a well-founded assessment of the funding needs by the institution.

The funding program aims to support projects that focus on empowering young people, creating meeting spaces between different cultures, and promoting an active, self-determined life in old age. Projects that combine elements of education, cultural diversity, and social cohesion across different age groups receive special consideration. Through financial support, the foundation intends to promote sustainable development and strengthen municipal structures in Hamburg. Continuous funding offers institutions the opportunity to implement innovative ideas and thus act as catalysts for social discourse and community cohesion.

The support provided by the Elisabeth Kleber Foundation represents an important pillar in the social fabric of the state capital, as it specifically fosters intercultural dialogue and intergenerational projects. Initiatives that offer children and young people a safe space for personal development, as well as concepts that promote coexistence among people of diverse backgrounds, are reinforced through financial support. Likewise, projects aimed at lifelong independence and an active life in old age receive assistance that further consolidates social cohesion. With this funding model, the foundation creates a clearly defined framework to advance distinguished projects with sustainable added value for Hamburg and thereby sustainably strengthen social cohesion in the region.
