Description
The German Volleyball Foundation supports non-profit volleyball clubs nationwide with the initiative "My Volleyball Dream," aiming to set new accents with original concepts for member recruitment, youth work, or social integration. Up to 25 grants of €500 each are awarded, which can be applied for at any time. A prerequisite is membership in a registered volleyball club and the submission of a project that strengthens social cohesion or provides children and young people with sustainable participation opportunities. The budget is specifically allocated to equipment, supervision, and transportation costs to enable direct engagement on-site. The evaluation criteria particularly emphasize creativity and a concrete focus on community activities within club life.
A funded project may, for example, include the purchase of balls and jerseys to expand training offerings, fees for trainers to provide professional guidance, or transportation costs to ensure safe travel to competitions. With this support, the Foundation aims to create a vibrant infrastructure where children and young people can develop their personalities playfully and build social networks. The uncomplicated application process without a fixed deadline allows clubs to respond flexibly to current needs and implement innovative ideas promptly. In this way, "My Volleyball Dream" contributes to establishing sport as a driver for community and equal opportunities and sustainably strengthens local initiatives.
