Project Funding of the Blue Bridge Foundation

The project funding of the “Blue Bridge” Foundation of Lebenshilfe Mecklenburg-Vorpommern provides long-term support to initiatives in the state of Mecklenburg-Vorpommern that focus on the areas of Social Affairs, Culture, Work & Social Affairs, as well as Culture & Media. Eligible for funding are non-profit organizations, public institutions, and private individuals who plan projects for people with intellectual disabilities and their families. Ideas are financed in the form of grants with the aim of promoting individual strengths and increasing social participation. The foundation operates based on its guiding principle “No one shall be disadvantaged because of their disability” and relies on the sustainable impact generated by the returns of its endowment capital.

The funding aims to enable people with intellectual disabilities to lead self-determined lives and to support their relatives. Projects range from creative leisure activities and cultural festivals to inclusive educational measures – always with the goal of reducing barriers and fostering encounters. Applications can be submitted on an ongoing basis, ensuring flexible project planning. The “Blue Bridge” Foundation contributes to realizing personal development opportunities and strengthening sustainable networks in the region. Interested project leaders can find further information about the ongoing application process on the state association website of Lebenshilfe Mecklenburg-Vorpommern.
