Description
The SAGA GWG Neighborhood Foundation supports innovative, non-profit projects in Hamburg residential neighborhoods that strengthen the coexistence of all population groups and enable sustainable integration. The focus is on initiatives that encourage residents to actively participate in shaping their environment and create social balance at the neighborhood level. Funding is provided for the basic and initial equipment of projects – for example, furnishing rooms, financing technical devices, or materials for public relations. Applicants must have non-profit status recognized by the tax office and design the project for the long term to ensure active involvement of those affected. Collaborations with existing district networks or other foundations are expressly welcomed.
Funding applications must be submitted digitally via the online form and require several documents, including a valid tax exemption certificate, a project description (maximum two A4 pages), the association’s statutes, as well as a cost and financing plan and agreement to the funding guidelines. Separate deadlines apply for applications up to EUR 5,000 (decision relevant in the meeting month, approximately 6–8 weeks after receipt) and for higher funding amounts, which must be submitted by the end of the previous month. Ongoing funding, grants for operating costs, and projects with commercial, political party, or religious orientation are excluded. Through this targeted financial support, the foundation makes a valuable contribution to promoting tolerance, mutual understanding, and vibrant coexistence in Hamburg. Interested organizations can find the next deadline in the funding data sheet and prepare early for the application process.
