Support from the Volksbank Bocholt Foundation

The funding provided by the Volksbank Bocholt Foundation is aimed at non-profit organizations and public institutions in North Rhine-Westphalia with headquarters in Bocholt or the surrounding area. The focus is on the sustainable support of regional projects in the fields of youth and elderly care, healthcare, sports, arts and culture, as well as environmental and animal protection. Annually, income from the foundation’s capital of up to 25,000 euros is available for grants to strengthen cooperative ideals such as solidarity and self-help locally. Applications can be submitted continuously at any time, ensuring ongoing project funding. By preserving the initial capital amount of 100,000 euros intact, the foundation ensures the long-term impact of its funding objectives.

Applicants must be recognized as non-profit associations or institutions and implement their project in one of the specified funding areas. Selection is made under the guiding principle “What one alone cannot achieve, many can accomplish together” – a symbol of partnership engagement in the region. Projects that pursue innovative solutions in social, cultural, or nature conservation topics are given preferential consideration. Interested organizations can find comprehensive information on submission in the foundation’s statutes and have already frequently benefited from grants for sports equipment, cultural events, or animal protection measures. The Volksbank Bocholt Foundation creates lasting positive impulses for the common good through its transparent allocation process and invites committed initiatives to jointly strengthen social cohesion in Bocholt and its surroundings.
