The Ralf Rangnick Stiftung focuses on helping children develop their strengths through practical, school-based projects, with a clear emphasis on equal opportunity regardless of social background. Its giving centers on primary schools and locally rooted initiatives in Leipzig and nearby Saxony, especially programs that combine learning with movement, nutrition, digital skills, sustainability, and hands-on community engagement. The foundation often works through school sponsorships and project competitions rather than large open-ended grants.
Mostly programmatic and place-based giving: school sponsorships typically at 5,000€ or 10,000€ per school year, plus competitive project grants of up to 5,000€ through annual calls such as Planet A. Support appears to be recurring but tied to specific initiatives, with a strong preference for schools and local partners in Leipzig and surrounding districts.
Check whether your school project fits one of their current programs: either a school sponsorship model or an annual sustainability call. Priority seems to go to primary schools and locally anchored projects in Leipzig, Landkreis Leipzig, and Landkreis Nordsachsen, so applicants should clearly show child development impact, practical implementation, and a strong school/community partnership.
