Funding of the Foundation for the Promotion of Integration through Mobility (IDM)

The Foundation for the Promotion of Integration through Mobility (IDM) offers continuous nationwide grants for private individuals, non-profit organizations, and public institutions committed to the self-determined mobility of people with disabilities. The aim is to overcome barriers that exist beyond state funding measures and to provide targeted support to those affected through education, individual counseling, and financial assistance. Within the thematic areas of counseling as well as counseling & business financing, the foundation funds services ranging from transportation organizations to specialized technical equipment. A prerequisite for funding is proof of disability as well as a detailed description of the mobility needs. Thus, people with disabilities who require support due to insufficient state services, as well as institutions engaged in accessibility and participation, receive funding opportunities.

With its funding program, the IDM Foundation pursues the overarching goal of strengthening inclusion through mobility and increasing participation in social life. Through low-threshold counseling services and financial grants, sustainable measures are implemented that enable people with disabilities to live a self-determined, dignified, and fulfilling life. Interested parties can submit applications at any time and benefit from a transparent allocation process. The foundation operates where state assistance reaches its limits, thereby building a bridge to a barrier-free everyday life. Committed organizations and individuals, together with the IDM Foundation, make an important contribution to social participation and integration.
