Funding
Why do we fund?
Children and young people with a refugee or migration background and children and young people from socio-economically weak families are systematically disadvantaged in the education system.
These children and young people should benefit from our support. We want them to develop the skills they need to meet the challenges of our lives. Particularly important to us is the development of language skills, the children's personal development and the accompanying work with parents.
To achieve this, we work together with various partners in the education system - for the greatest possible depth of impact and sustainability!
What do we fund?
We fund non-profit organisations that pursue the purpose of promoting education and upbringing or the promotion of aid for refugees for the benefit of the educational prospects of socio-economically disadvantaged children and young people in accordance with their statutes.
Your work should fulfil the following criteria:
- What?
Your goal is equal access to education. Your focus here is primarily on the development of language skills, personal development and/or successful parental work.
- Who?
The target group is children and young people with socio-economic disadvantages and/or their families.
- How?
Your work follows a coherent impact logic and the impact is evaluated. We would like to see an alignment with our corporate values: Optimism - Energy - Humanity.
- Where?
We support organisations throughout Germany.
How can you apply for funding?
Our funding budget is currently fully allocated. Unfortunately, we are therefore unable to accept any new organisations into our funding portfolio at the moment.
However, if you think that your vision and approach are a good fit for us, you are welcome to contact us at foerderung@affirmative.social. Even if we cannot actively pursue new enquiries at the moment, we are always open to an initial conversation - because we are convinced that we can learn from each other through dialogue. If there is room for manoeuvre again in the future, we may come back to you.
We are particularly interested in getting a first impression of you:
- Who?
Who are you?
- What?
What do you do specifically and how could we achieve more together?
- How?
What impact are you having on our target group - and has this already been evaluated?
- How much?
What funding would you need if we were to work together?
An initial conversation helps us to understand whether our visions fit together. If we contact you, we will discuss openly and transparently whether and how we can proceed.
