Bürgerstiftung Schwalenberg is a place-based community foundation focused on preserving Schwalenberg’s historic old town and improving quality of life in the local area. It primarily supports local projects that align with heritage preservation, arts and culture, education, environmental stewardship, and sports, with an emphasis on civic engagement and community benefit in Schwalenberg and the wider Kreis Lippe region. Its giving is distinctly local and practical, backing small community initiatives rather than large institutional programs.
Direct local project grants funded from foundation income and donations, typically small to modest awards ($50-$5,000) with a strong geographic restriction to Schwalenberg, Schieder-Schwalenberg, and Kreis Lippe.
