Support for the Lukas Podolski Foundation

The Lukas Podolski Foundation supports innovative and sustainable projects with ongoing grants that open up new perspectives for children and young people from socially disadvantaged backgrounds. The focus is on projects in the fields of sports, culture, and media, which not only provide young participants with athletic and educational experiences but also promote long-term social integration and individual development. By funding sports-based activities and imparting important values in a practical environment, the foundation significantly contributes to skills development, thereby offering the target groups a secure framework and new life opportunities. The foundation places great emphasis on intensive support and the sustainable success of the projects, which is to be substantiated by documented evidence of effectiveness.

The funding initiative is exclusively aimed at non-profit organizations dedicated to supporting disadvantaged young people. Financial support is provided as a grant and is intended to accompany initiatives that align with the foundation’s objectives and meet the individual needs of the youth. In addition to a clear focus on individual cases, a convincing demonstration of the successful implementation and impact of the project in practice is required. This approach ensures that the funding not only provides short-term assistance but also invests in the long-term social and personal development of young people.

Ongoing support from the Lukas Podolski Foundation offers interested organizations throughout Germany an attractive opportunity to implement projects in the areas of sports and education. The financial contribution supports initiatives that aim not only at developing athletic skills but also at conveying social values. This combination promotes the sustainable integration of disadvantaged young people into society. Through the diverse orientation of the funding areas, a contribution is made to strengthening social cohesion, with the foundation’s long-term support approach being particularly emphasized. The holistic funding approach and continuous support enable the optimal development of the target groups’ individual potentials and open up new perspectives in a changing society.
