Funding "The Youth" (Possehl Foundation)

The Possehl Foundation offers the funding program "Die Jugend" as a continuously open grant opportunity for non-profit organizations and public institutions in Schleswig-Holstein that are based in or operate in Lübeck. The focus is on supporting clubs and institutions that provide services for children and young people and promote their personal development, athletic activities, cultural creativity, as well as educational and socio-pedagogical projects. The topics range from holiday camps and sports activities to cultural-educational workshops and media literacy initiatives. Through a straightforward application process via the Possehl Foundation’s funding portal, funds can be requested for projects of any scale. Submissions are processed continuously, provided they are received at least three weeks before the respective meeting date.

With the aim of creating developmental spaces for young people’s interests and talents, the foundation makes a reliable contribution to strengthening the community. Applicants must, in addition to non-profit status, only demonstrate their presence in Lübeck and submit their applications through the official portal. The funding program is equally aimed at sports clubs, educational providers, cultural initiatives, and socio-pedagogical institutions that implement preventive, integrative, or innovative projects. By providing grants, "Die Jugend" helps improve participation opportunities, promote engagement, and ensure sustainable youth support in the Hanseatic city.
