Description

Since its founding in 1960, the Friedrich Bluhme and Else Jebsen Foundation has supported a wide range of charitable, benevolent, ecclesiastical, and cultural projects in the Lübeck region. Using the proceeds from the traditional Lübeck marzipan factory, innovative initiatives in the fields of culture, media, music, and social affairs are promoted. The initiative is exclusively aimed at non-profit organizations committed to the common good through their projects. This funding provides a valuable financial grant that enables the realization of projects, especially in a culturally and socially dynamic region, while securing the continuation of regional traditions.

The foundation, established by Friedrich Bluhme Jebsen shortly before his passing, aims to carry his life's work into the future without external influence. Funding applications can be submitted by post, ensuring straightforward and transparent processing. Organizations engaged in ecclesiastical, cultural, or social causes will find ideal support here to successfully implement their projects. With a broad funding portfolio, both creativity and social commitment in the region are given space to develop—an approach that appeals equally to experts and initiators and contributes to the sustainable anchoring of culture and the common good.

Ongoing support in Schleswig-Holstein represents an important pillar of regional engagement. Financing through grants makes it possible to realize projects with long-term impact that benefit the social and cultural fabric of the region. By incorporating modern requirements and contemporary funding strategies, new synergies are continuously created that promote the dialogue between tradition and innovation. With this funding model, the Friedrich Bluhme and Else Jebsen Foundation offers non-profit organizations the opportunity to put their visionary ideas into practice, thereby making a decisive contribution to strengthening cultural and social life in Lübeck and its surroundings.
