Funding in Altenburger Land

The Sparkassenstiftung Altenburger Land actively supports a wide range of charitable projects in Thuringia. This funding program is aimed at organizations implementing cultural and sporting initiatives, heritage preservation, elderly care, as well as science-related and environmentally recognized projects in the Altenburger Land. The foundation’s goal is to enrich social life and strengthen local identities. Through grants as a form of support, the initiative enables projects in the fields of culture, sports, science, environmental/nature conservation, climate protection, animal welfare, labor & social affairs, as well as culture & media to be specifically advanced – always with consideration for an inclusive and sustainable orientation.

Only charitable organizations whose projects are based within the business area of Sparkasse Altenburger Land are eligible for funding. The funding criteria include not only cultural and sporting initiatives but also projects that benefit homeland and traditional customs preservation, youth promotion, public health care, and elderly assistance. Applications can be submitted in writing at any time through a continuous application process. Project evaluations take place in committee meetings held at least twice a year – in spring and autumn. Particular attention is paid to a well-founded project description, a clear timeline and financing plan, as well as proof of charitable status.

Funding in Altenburger Land offers versatile support for projects that promote social cohesion, environmental responsibility, and cultural richness. The initiative thus provides not only financial resources but also contributes to networking and strengthening regional engagement. Organizations implementing innovative ideas in the fields of culture, sports, science, and social projects benefit from this grant and can sustainably plan and realize their endeavors. The targeted support by the foundation underscores the ongoing commitment to preserving and further developing Altenburger Land as a vibrant and diverse region.
