J. Wilh. Tenten-Stiftung is a Bonn-based local social welfare foundation that focuses on helping residents of Bonn who are in need, especially older adults and other vulnerable groups. It supports both direct individual assistance and local nonprofit organizations, with a strong emphasis on practical relief, volunteer-driven social engagement, and improving access to services and participation in community life. The foundation also honors exceptional civic commitment in Bonn through the Tenten-Preis, suggesting it values hands-on, community-rooted work over broad regional or national initiatives.
Primarily local, Bonn-only support through direct aid, institutional grants, and an annual prize. Grants appear to be relatively modest and program-specific, with the Tenten-Preis fixed at €12,000 and institutional support limited to tax-advantaged organizations serving needy Bonn residents; some support is handled via application, while prize recipients are likely nominated.

Applicants should be Bonn-based, tax-advantaged organizations whose work directly benefits people in need in Bonn, and proposals should clearly show local impact. For the Tenten-Preis, candidates are typically nominated for outstanding social engagement rather than applying directly; for project support, use the institutional application process described by the foundation and emphasize practical assistance for seniors, families, or vulnerable residents.
