Funding by the West Thuringia Foundation

The funding provided by the West Thuringia Foundation supports non-profit organizations from Thuringia that implement their projects in the fields of culture, education, and social engagement. With the aim of sustainably strengthening civic participation and social cohesion in West Thuringia, a wide range of initiatives are supported. The grants are directed at actors who wish to make a significant contribution to regional development through their projects. Financial support is provided in the form of subsidies that help successfully realize cultural events, educational projects, or socially oriented measures. The continuous opportunity to submit applications allows organizations to respond flexibly to current challenges and opportunities in their region. Furthermore, the foundation promotes innovative approaches that connect art, music, media, sports, and other socially relevant areas, thereby positively influencing various population groups.

The foundation’s funding approach places a special emphasis on projects that strengthen identification, belonging, and intercultural exchange within the community. Activities in the areas of upbringing, general and vocational education can be among the eligible projects, as well as measures supporting grassroots and youth sports. Thus, the foundation actively contributes to professional training and further education, as well as to fostering new impulses that promote social cohesion and initiate inclusive regional development. Through this dedicated support, a valuable platform is created that enables organizations to network and implement their projects within an innovative and supportive framework. The initiative encourages the further development of existing ideas and the initiation of new projects that will benefit culture, education, and social coexistence in West Thuringia in the long term.
