The Josef Mühlbauer Foundation is a German family foundation that supports charitable projects across a fairly broad set of statutory purposes, with a clear emphasis on science and research, education and vocational training, and arts and culture. It appears to favor practical, mission-aligned projects in East Bavaria and internationally, often backing organizations that can demonstrate public benefit in areas like youth development, religious or cultural work, and development cooperation. Its grants are typically straightforward project donations rather than large strategic partnerships, which makes it a good fit for nonprofits seeking flexible support for discrete initiatives.
Accepts general project applications and awards one-off donations, typically ranging from a few thousand euros up to tens of thousands of euros. Funding is project-based rather than multi-year, with examples suggesting modest to mid-sized grants and a likely preference for clearly defined charitable activities.
