Support for the Disabled Sports Foundation in Saxony-Anhalt

The Foundation for Disabled Sports in Saxony-Anhalt specifically supports sports projects that sustainably strengthen the concept of "help for self-help" through a grant program. The funding program is aimed at private individuals and non-profit organizations wishing to implement projects in the field of disabled sports. The focus is on the acquisition of sports equipment and materials, the purchase of assistive devices, as well as barrier-free renovations. The organization of sports events and the maintenance of disability-accessible training and meeting spaces are also supported. Through these diverse measures, an inclusive infrastructure is created that facilitates access to sports offerings in recreational, youth, competitive, and elite sports for people with disabilities and chronic illnesses.

The funding objective is to develop model projects that improve the quality of life and participation of athletes. This funding emphasizes both the establishment of barrier-free facilities and the equipping of sports clubs with modern and functional equipment. In addition to supporting technical and structural measures, the program also enables the implementation of innovative concepts for organizing sports events. The Foundation regards this support as an investment in independence and long-term commitment to disabled sports. A special aspect of the funding is its alignment with the individual needs of the target group, aiming to sustainably improve everyday sports activities and advance integration processes within the societal context.

Applications are submitted via a specific grant application sent to the Foundation. Both individuals and registered clubs can apply for funding. All eligible expenses—such as the acquisition of sports equipment, structural adaptations, and event organization—are considered. Through the ongoing funding opportunity, the program offers continuous support that accompanies and further develops projects in Saxony-Anhalt over the long term. This initiative makes an important contribution to social inclusion and sustainably strengthens disabled sports through targeted investments. Interested initiators and organizations thus receive a concrete opportunity to realize their projects in a supportive and fostering environment.
