Funding of the Volksbank Neckartal Foundation

The Volksbank Neckartal Foundation, established in 2013 and endowed with a foundation capital of one million euros, is dedicated to the sustainable promotion of regional projects in Baden-Württemberg. The foundation acts as a strong catalyst for initiatives that offer significant added value to the community in diverse areas such as science and research, education and upbringing, arts and culture, religion, environmental and monument protection, as well as local heritage. By supporting projects that also include youth welfare, elderly care, public health services, social welfare, and sports activities, a broad spectrum of societal needs is addressed. Through its commitment, the foundation strengthens regional identity and forms a financial pillar that supports innovation and social cohesion in the region.

Funding is provided in the form of grants and is available to non-profit organizations, companies, and private individuals, provided their headquarters are located within the Volksbank Neckartal’s business area. The support measures are designed so that they may not be used for ongoing operating costs but must be invested directly in innovative projects that deliver verifiable results in a timely manner. The foundation places great emphasis on the combination of scientific and creative approaches, with particular focus on projects that take an interdisciplinary approach and promote dialogue between culture, ecology, and social participation. Thus, not only is the support of individual sub-areas ensured, but the sustainable development of the entire region is actively advanced.

Applications are submitted easily via the contact form provided on the official website, provided that all required documents, such as the fully completed funding application and the foundation’s statutes, are submitted. Applications are carefully reviewed by the foundation’s board to enable timely and targeted allocation of funds. This transparent awarding process guarantees that the funded projects meet the established criteria and create genuine added value for the regional community. Through this continuous funding strategy, the Volksbank Neckartal Foundation underscores its role as a reliable partner for pioneers who actively wish to contribute to shaping an innovative, culturally and ecologically diverse future in Baden-Württemberg.
