Description
The Munich Rainbow Foundation is committed to actively promoting equality and combating discrimination within the LGBTIQ* community in Munich and the surrounding area. Through targeted grants, the foundation supports not only project-based or action-oriented approaches but also provides individual assistance to support disadvantaged persons in urgent situations. Funding is exclusively directed towards non-profit organizations recognized as tax-privileged entities. The foundation’s engagement spans diverse areas such as health, social affairs, education, culture, sports, as well as labor and social services.
When applying for project or measure funding, the planned initiatives must be clearly aimed at establishing equality and combating discrimination within the community of lesbians, gays, bisexuals, and transgender persons. Particular support is given to projects located in the fields of healthcare, sports, welfare, youth and elderly care, arts and culture, as well as education and upbringing. Prior to formal submission, contact must be made with the Coordination Office for LGBTIQ* Equality to obtain the project funding application and to fulfill the prerequisites for a successful application. This ensures that all applications comply with the foundation’s statutory guidelines.
The funding opportunities provided by the Munich Rainbow Foundation offer a valuable chance to strengthen diversity and inclusion in society. Projects involving external measures and activities are the focus of the funding, whereas internal events such as member meetings or catering costs are not considered. Through ongoing funding practices, organizations have the opportunity to submit applications in a timely manner before cost commitments, thereby enabling them to implement their innovative ideas to improve quality of life and promote community. The foundation’s practice-oriented support underscores its commitment to sustainable social progress and enables dedicated actors to effect long-term and positive changes across various societal sectors.
