Funding of the Jacobus Jahns Foundation

The Jacobus Jahns Foundation is committed to the long-term preservation of St. John's Church and the community center in Hondelage, thereby supporting key components of church life in the Lower Saxony region. Private individuals, public-law entities, and non-profit organizations can receive financial contributions as grants, provided that projects are implemented locally. The focus is on measures that ensure the operation, maintenance, and equipment of church buildings, as well as support special offerings in community life. A particular emphasis is placed on promoting children and youth: through creative youth projects, leisure activities, and educational initiatives, a vibrant community spirit is fostered, enabling young people to actively participate in shaping their environment.

Furthermore, personnel costs within the church budget can be covered to strengthen staff and enable long-term planning. Expenses for personnel, acquisitions, and ongoing operating costs are supported without strict deadlines – applications can be submitted at any time. The foundation values transparent allocation, where funds flow directly into the community. Project leaders of all ages interested in funding benefit from a straightforward application process and thus actively contribute to the future viability of community life.
