Funding of the Lower Saxony Homeless Assistance Foundation

The Lower Saxony Homelessness Assistance Foundation continuously supports non-profit, scientific, and public initiatives in Lower Saxony that address homelessness and poverty-related issues. Since its establishment in 1999, it has particularly supported studies, documentation, social experiments, and public relations work. The aim of the financial grants is to deepen insights into the living conditions of those affected, develop sustainable solutions, and strengthen societal awareness of the topic. Eligible for funding are organizations from the fields of research, education, and social practice, as well as public institutions and educational establishments that can demonstrate a close connection to scientific or non-profit objectives.

Project proposals can be submitted at any time, as the Lower Saxony Homelessness Assistance Foundation offers a continuous application deadline. A prerequisite for funding is a focus on homelessness or poverty alleviation, as well as a clearly defined scientific or non-profit approach. Support is provided in the form of grants, which are flexibly adapted to the specific project needs. Participants thereby receive a reliable basis to test innovative concepts, conduct empirical research, or develop informative public relations work. The foundation operates neutrally and with an open approach to concepts, enabling a broad range of initiatives aimed at improving the social situation of people living in precarious circumstances.
