Application for funding for social projects

We, the Adalbert-Raps-Stiftung, want to positively support social development in Upper Franconia through our funding partnerships. To ensure that change processes are as targeted as possible, our funding projects should be sustainable and effective. For this reason, our funding application is based on the Social Reporting Standard (=SRS) and the PHINEO principles for effective social projects. Stakeholders from academia, non-profit organizations and social investors developed these guidelines to make social engagement transparent. Our form is therefore not only used to submit applications to us, but can also be helpful for your organizational development.
