This aims to strengthen community life and spiritual fellowship on site, promote Christian encounters, and ensure support across all age groups. Non-profit organizations with a statutory purpose linked to the work of the Protestant parish of Ergste are entitled to submit applications at any time. The decisions of the foundation board are made transparently according to the criteria of statutory purpose, sustainability, and actual community need.
For the application, an informal cover letter outlining the purpose of the funding is required, supplemented by proof of non-profit status and a detailed breakdown of the planned personnel costs and pastoral care measures. Continuous submission allows for flexible planning without fixed deadlines. Eligible expenses exclusively include personnel and measure costs for spiritual guidance, youth work, senior care, and similar offerings.
