Description

The project funding of the Vereinigte-Volksbank-Stiftung respektplus in Lower Saxony is aimed at non-profit organizations, interest groups, educational institutions, associations, and public bodies with a regional scope in Osnabrück. Financial grants support measures against violence, bullying, hate, and agitation – including in digital media – as well as initiatives that promote respect, tolerance, equality, and solidarity. In addition to awareness campaigns in schools or youth centers, the funding portfolio also includes projects on media literacy, victim support, and accompaniment of experiences of violence. Decisive for the allocation are the social added value, the feasibility of the measures, and the achievement of the target groups.

Interested initiatives and institutions can submit an application at any time: contact details and a brief project description are sufficient. Missing documentation will be requested if necessary, keeping the application process straightforward. Only non-profit actors or public law entities whose projects contribute to violence prevention and social cohesion in the Osnabrück region are eligible for funding. Selection is made by the foundation board, which continuously reviews applications. By supporting locally anchored projects, respektplus creates sustainable impulses for democratic coexistence and strengthens long-term commitment against discrimination and violence.
