We promote our district
Lernen in Langenhorn
With our local funding line "Learning in Langenhorn", we finance educational projects on site in the district of our foundation headquarters.
Do your students want to start their own business at your school? Would your daycare center like to build a bread oven to teach children about healthy eating? Your association supports young people in their search for internships or apprenticeships? We have already supported projects like these in the past.
What we offer
Up to 5,000 euros in funding for educational projects.
Which projects are supported?
Projects from the fields of natural sciences, business and personality development that, for example:
- help children and young people discover their talents,
- promote intercultural skills or international mobility,
- interest children and young people in natural sciences or economics,
- organize project days or excursions for children and young people,
- give young people the opportunity to conduct research in learning laboratories,
- support the personal development of children and young people.

Funded project
Free Day
Since spring break, the Eberhofweg school in Hamburg's Langenhorn district has been offering "Frei Day" for 1a and 1c. For the children, this means that every second Friday they experience nature outside with their teachers and the environmental educator Lore Otto and are encouraged to curiously explore life.
The "Frei Day" is a format in the field of ESD and stands for "Education for Sustainable Development". What is meant is an education that enables people to think and act in a way that is fit for the future. Often this form of education is not offered in school, this is where the promotion takes effect.
