Funding of the Kreuzkirche St. Hülfe-Heede Foundation

The Kreuzkirche St. Hülfe-Heede Foundation, as a church institution in Lower Saxony, continuously supports non-profit organizations committed to social cohesion and democratic engagement, monument preservation, culture, labor & social affairs, infrastructure & urban development, as well as culture & media. From the interest income of the foundation’s capital, events, maintenance measures, and social services of the Kreuzkirche parish in St. Hülfe-Heede are supported. The goal is to secure key church projects and parish work in the long term and to enrich village life through sustainable use of funds. As a grant provider, the foundation places great importance on preserving the capital and using only the interest income.

Particularly interested are parish members, church groups, and volunteers who wish to implement projects for the village community or carry out construction measures on church buildings and parish rooms. Applications can be submitted continuously, with the grant amount aligned to the annual interest income. The funding enables both cultural events and social initiatives such as senior and youth meetings, educational offerings, or barrier-free renovations. Through this support, the foundation combines the preservation of historic building fabric with the development of forward-looking parish work, thereby strengthening community cohesion on site.
