Foundation Award of the Give Education a Chance Foundation

The foundation award from the Gib Bildung eine Chance Foundation continuously honors and supports pioneering educational projects in Bremen that specifically promote equal opportunities for children and young people. As an award with financial support, the prize is aimed at public institutions, non-profit organizations, and educational establishments whose programs operate in the areas of vocational training and further education, sports, culture & media, work & social affairs, as well as child and youth development. Particular focus is placed on innovative approaches to promoting reading, learning support, and career orientation that are rooted in Bremen and contribute sustainably to improving the educational situation. The continuous awarding ensures that both established initiatives and new ideas have the opportunity to further develop and enhance their impact.

The foundation award is intended especially to recognize projects that break down educational barriers and contribute to comprehensive personal development beyond formal offerings. Supported are initiatives that increase reading skills, accompany school learning processes, or prepare for the transition to vocational training and higher education. Another focus lies on promoting school sports to strengthen physical health and team spirit. A prerequisite for funding is a clear focus on equal opportunities, the project’s location in Bremen, and a targeted emphasis on children and young people. The foundation works closely with extracurricular partners and places great value on sustainable cooperation to set long-term effective impulses for a more equitable educational landscape.
