Funding of the Lerose Foundation (Project funding for children and youth in Remscheid)

The project funding of the Lerose Foundation is aimed at non-profit organizations, interest groups, and associations based in Remscheid or the immediate surrounding area. The goal is to support initiatives that sustainably enhance the welfare of children and young people in North Rhine-Westphalia. The focus is on projects in the fields of child and youth welfare, social affairs, education, sports, work & social services, vocational training & further education, as well as culture & media. The foundation continuously grants subsidies for measures that particularly enable learning support, prevention, and recreational activities for young people locally, thereby making a valuable contribution to the local community.

Applications can be submitted at any time via a prescribed form and require proof of non-profit status. Mandatory application documents to be submitted include: the completed application form, a copy of the current tax exemption certificate, a detailed project description, and a transparent financing plan. The Lerose Foundation continuously reviews incoming applications and awards interest-free grants depending on the project scope and own contribution. The funds must be used for the designated purpose and are managed by the fiduciary administration of DS Deutsche Stiftungsagentur to ensure proper use of funds. Through this funding initiative, local associations and social institutions receive reliable support to implement innovative and needs-based offerings for children and young people.
