Ehrenamtsstiftung MV supports volunteer-driven civic engagement across Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, with a strong emphasis on recognizing, advising, qualifying, and connecting local volunteer initiatives. Its funding is highly place-based and often practical: it backs grassroots volunteer projects, youth engagement, nonprofit capacity-building, and community infrastructure such as Freifunk networks. The foundation also plays a visible convening role through awards and partnerships, especially for exemplary volunteer work and youth-focused civic participation.
Primarily annual, program-based support with small-to-moderate grants and in-kind recognition; typical project grants are often up to €1,000, with exceptions up to €3,000, and the organization also offers fixed €3,000 consulting awards for organizational development. Some support is competitive and deadline-driven, while awards and partnership programs are recurring or invitation/selection based rather than open-ended.

Check the relevant program page early each year, since several offerings are annual and dates open on a fixed schedule; the 'Gutes tun in MV' program has a yearly application window and one project per applicant rule. For consulting support, prepare a clear case for organizational development and watch for the annual announcement, while award programs are nomination- or jury-based rather than traditional grant applications.
