Description

The Savings Bank Foundation of the Landesbank Kreissparkasse has been committed to the Sigmaringen district for over 180 years and supports a wide range of charitable projects through its foundation. The funding is aimed at non-profit organizations that implement innovative initiatives in the fields of science, research, culture, health, social affairs, sports, and other societal areas. The primary goal is to support science and research, arts and culture, education, as well as monument protection and preservation, thereby making a sustainable contribution to regional development. The foundation thus goes well beyond the usual scope of activity and sends a strong signal of civic engagement in Baden-Württemberg.

The funding measure is based on grant allocation, where formal requirements and the connection to the business area of the Landesbank Kreissparkasse are central evaluation criteria. All formal requirements must be met for the application – including the complete funding application as well as proof of tax exemption through a valid exemption certificate or a certificate of non-assessment. Project evaluation is based on non-profit status and relevance to the regional field of activity. A variety of funding areas are considered, including digitalization, commitment to social cohesion, environmental/nature conservation, promotion of physical activity, and educational offerings. By continuously accepting applications, the Savings Bank Foundation offers all interested project sponsors the opportunity to submit their initiatives and apply for support.

The selection criteria ensure that funded projects have a direct positive impact on the region. Projects that do not meet the formal requirements or lack a connection to the business area are not eligible for funding. Through this clear focus on the regional context, the foundation aims to sustainably strengthen social, cultural, and scientific progress in the Sigmaringen district. With its long-standing tradition dating back to 1834, the Savings Bank Foundation thus sends a strong signal: it supports innovative and needs-based solutions that contribute to the livability and future-oriented development of the region. Interested non-profit organizations wishing to implement projects in the aforementioned areas will find in this funding a unifying support for forward-looking ideas.
