Foundation Opportunities for Children: General Support

The Chances for Children Foundation in Hamburg offers an open funding opportunity with its General Support for non-profit associations, initiatives, and educational institutions committed to disadvantaged children and youth. Applications can be submitted at any time, enabling seed funding during the idea phase as well as implementation and follow-up financing, along with permanent structural support. Special focus areas include equal opportunities, education, health, child and youth welfare, as well as environmental and climate protection. Projects in the fields of development cooperation, further education, energy efficiency, renewable energies, agriculture, and rural development are also supported, as are initiatives from social services and arts education.

Both personnel and material costs are funded to sustainably anchor creative concepts and strengthen local structures. The flexible grant funding is explicitly aimed at organizations with a clear non-profit orientation operating in Hamburg. Through the combination of one-time project funding and longer-term support, the foundation contributes to the professional development of programs and organizational structures. Interested organizations can submit an informal application at any time and thus help ensure that children and youth in Hamburg receive better future prospects. This funding offer invites the realization of innovative approaches and the establishment of long-term effective structures.
